In Leadership, presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Doris Kearns Goodwin provides an essential and accessible roadmap for aspiring and established leaders in every field and for all of us in our everyday lives.

Applying five decades of study, profound insights and masterful storytelling, Goodwin demonstrates how four exceptional leaders—U.S. presidents Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon B. Johnson— overcame adversity and transcended personal ambition to enlarge the lives of others. In today's polarized world, these stories of authentic leadership guided by moral purpose, collaboration, compromise, and civility take on a singular urgency. --back cover

A Look at the Human Side of Presidential Leadership

Goodwin picks threads of similarity between all four leaders - origins, slumps, and victories - and uses her intimate knowledge of these figures to draw parallels between their situations. She draws on outside research on leadership traits and highlights those traits in practice through each of these stories.

There is a huge amount of US history here, relatable stories, and guidance on how to navigate leadership challenges. Wonderful work by one of America's foremost historians.
