Lincoln’s leadership in contemporary public life

Donald T. Phillips examines Abraham Lincoln’s management philosophy and considers how it might inform present-day American debates. The book connects Lincoln’s record on politics, civil rights, war, entitlement programs, federal and state authority, and environmental concerns with conflicts facing the country in the twenty-first century. Its organizing question is how lessons drawn from Lincoln’s leadership can be brought to bear on current national divisions. The result is a guide to leadership and public issues anchored in historical example, rather than a biography of Lincoln alone.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Lincoln’s leadership and management approach.
  • Those exploring leadership through the lens of American political history.
  • Readers interested in how historical examples relate to current public issues.
