The Art of Leadership: Lessons from the American Presidency
Join us for “The Art of Leadership: Lessons from the American Presidency” with Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jon Meacham on Wednesday October 7th @ 7pm at the UAS Ketchikan Campus Library, 2600 7th Avenue.
This presentation is part of the UAA College of Arts and Sciences Community Lecture Series, and it is important to note that we will not be streaming it on Facebook.
We hope to see you there!
“Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jon Meacham explores what 21st-century leaders across a range of fields can learn from the greatest moments of our shared past. This nonpartisan presentation highlights lessons from Jefferson's pragmatism and JFK's ability to recover from his own mistakes to the management of conflicting egos demonstrated by Reagan and FDR, as well as how George H.W. Bush navigated the end of his presidency. Meacham shows how history can inform the decisions we make every day in roles that demand creative and innovative solutions.” -UAA
