By analyzing the leadership skills of seven recent American
presidents, this book seeks to de-mystify the elements and dynamics
of effective presidential leadership which our democracy has come
to depend upon and value. Building on the pioneering work of
political scientist Fred Greenstein and others, this book argues
that leadership in the White House can be explained and assessed by
using a consistent set of criteria to analyze presidential
performance. Siegel shows that presidential leadership is exercised
by real, flawed human beings, and not by superheroes or
philosopher-kings beyond the reach of scrutiny or critique. New to
the Second Edition Includes a new chapter covering both terms of
the Obama administration. Applies the author's four-part leadership
framework to the early part,of the Trump administration. Discusses
the possibilities of presidential leadership in an era of intense
partisanship.
