351: Book of the Week: Team of Rivals

Show Notes: MLDC Book of the Week – Team of Rivals
Episode 351 of The HaltingWinter Podcast

In 1860, Abraham Lincoln won the Republican nomination over three men who were more experienced, more connected, and more respected than he was...and then handed them the most powerful jobs in his administration.

This week on The HaltingWinter Podcast, we're kicking off something special in the MLDC...our Special Summer Series, Stories That Shape Leaders, and we're starting with Doris Kearns Goodwin's Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. It's a 750-page presidential biography and one of the most useful leadership books you'll find, even though it never mentions a city council or a budget hearing.
