Good bio, leans pro-Bloomberg

Well written and interesting. I got the sense that the author was pro-Bloomberg, even though there were “bad facts” discussed. Hard to know if it is bias or if his record speaks for itself.

Are leaders born or made? Where does ambition come from? How does adversity affect the growth of leadership? Does the man make the times or do the times make the man? In Leadership, Goodwin draws upon four of the presidents she has studied most closely - Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon B. Johnson (in civil rights) - to show how they first recognized leadership qualities within themselves, and were recognized by others as leaders.

What makes a president great?
- De tru britty en 09-25-18
Great read, very approachable, but not groundbreaking
Revisado: 01-19-19
I enjoyed this book and thought DKG did a great job illustrating the essence of each leader through biography and anecdotes. I learned a lot. Very readable. I loved the structure of the book and was never bored—how can you be with these four men?
But I think DKG fell a bit short in the last section of the book, the case studies about leadership. I thought the Teddy Roosevelt case study was best, because I didn’t know anything about the coal strikes, but the other three case studies were on topics heavily covered and I’m not sure DKG gets all of the way there in terms of giving readers broad takeaways for leadership. Overall, though, would recommend this book.
