MICHAEL BESCHLOSS
PRESIDENTIAL HISTORIAN AND POLITICAL ANALYST
Called “the nation’s leading Presidential historian” by Newsweek, Michael Beschloss’ humor and never-before-told tales about presidents past help audiences understand today’s leaders against the backdrop of history.
Leadership and The Presidency: Michael Beschloss weaves colorful anecdotes and brilliant inside analysis of the U.S.’s presidents with an informed, detailed understanding of leadership styles – providing a perspective on today’s leadership from the vantage-point of history. Beschloss shows how men who held this office wielded their power, and how it shaped and influenced their decisions as leaders on the world stage.

From the Oval Office to the Boardroom: Trained in leadership at the Harvard Business School, Beschloss demonstrates how the qualities of political leadership lend themselves to more effective leadership in business as well. With the unique experience of having spoken about leadership with every American President from Richard Nixon to George W. Bush, Beschloss shows executives and business leaders what they can learn from these great men to better manage, lead, and inspire.
