Great leaders are often created under pressure, and perhaps no one better exemplifies this than Abraham Lincoln. How is such an exceptional leader made? And what can his story teach us about our own path to leadership?
Born from humble beginnings, Lincoln would rise from his early disadvantages to the highest office in the land at one of its most dangerous and divisive periods. In The Art of Leadership: Abraham Lincoln, Dr. Gautam Mukunda of the Yale School of Management will show you how the unique combination of both determination and openness—of supreme confidence and supreme humility—that made Lincoln the paragon of American presidents is perhaps the most valuable lesson on leadership that he can teach us today.
