About this episode
David Gergen, former White House advisor to four different U.S. Presidents and New York Times- best selling author joins Joe to talk about his latest book Hearts Touched With Fire: How Great Leaders Are Made. In this episode David argues that leaders must take an inner journey to master themselves before leading others. He also shares what he learned working for Presidents Nixon, Reagan, and Clinton. After spending the last two decades sharing leadership lessons with his students at the Harvard Kennedy School, he now hopes to spread them more widely through his book and this podcast.
