Episode Synopsis

In today's episode of the Round Table Chats, I have the pleasure of interviewing Mike Buckler. Mike is an attorney advisor for the U.S International Trade Commission and is the CEO & General Counsel of Village X Org.

Some of the many topics we discuss include: development, "Why Nations Fail", Peace Corps, village dynamics, the vital importance of communication, seeing villages as ecosystems, offering holistic solutions, the value of statistics, what do villages want?, Why do they want it?, What is the impact per dollar spent?, and Mike's advice for young people who want to do good in the world.
