A liquidity shortfall, pending debt maturity, unhappy bank, or over-leveraged balance sheet does not indicate a failure of leadership. Situations like this are often caused by industry cycles, changing regulations or shifting markets that, as a result, have a negative impact on an organization’s
financial arrangements.

Moreover, situations like this do not have to mean bankruptcy or sale. There are forms of financing – referred to as bridge, stress or rescue –that can be leveraged as a solution to the problem.
