Leadership

Leadership

A Pulitzer Prizeâ€“winning historian examines transformational leaders from Moses to Machiavelli to Martin Luther King Jr. in this â€œimpressive bookâ€ (The Washington Post).
Â Historian and political scientist James MacGregor Burns has spent much of his career documenting the use and misuse of power by leaders throughout history. In this groundbreaking study, Burns examines the qualities that make certain leadersâ€”in America and elsewhereâ€”succeed as transformative figures. Through insightful anecdotes and historical analysis, Burns scrutinizes the charisma, vision, and persuasive power of individuals able to imbue followers with a common sense of purpose, from the founding fathers to FDR, Gandhi to Napoleon. Since its original publication in 1970, Leadership has set the standard for scholarship in the field.
