Leadership and Common Sense. What did Machiavelli and St Augustine have in common? Can we learn leadership from the failures of Napoleon? Why did President Lincoln's impeccable timing create a more equal nation? Join me in this fascinating conversation with Yale professor and Pulitzer Prize winner John Lewis Gaddis, author On Grand Strategy (Penguin Press 2018). From Ancient Greece to Ronald Reagan, Professor Gaddis traces a path of common sense and leadership for both the individual and the nation state. In a light hearted conversation filled with nuggets of brilliance (Professor Gaddis) travel through time to get a first hand glimpse of how successful leaders succeed.
