Today’s podcast is titled “Presidential Leadership: The Defining Traits.”
Recorded in early 2025, host Jim Falk sits down with presidential historians Talmage Boston, author of How the Best Did It: Leadership Lessons from Our Top Presidents, and Jeremi Suri, Ph.D., Mack Brown Distinguished Professor at UT Austin and author of The Impossible Presidency, along with John Lawrence, Ph.D., former chief of staff to Nancy Pelosi and author of Arc of Power, to discuss what separates history’s most effective presidents from the rest. The conversation points to common threads among the best: building a strong team, staying open to opposing views, and learning from past mistakes.
