The Peacemakers: Leadership Lessons from Twentieth-Century Statesmanship Audiobook (Free)

In The Peacemakers, a kind of global edition of John F. Kennedy’s Profiles in Courage, Bruce Jentleson displays how key figures in the last century rewrote the zero-sum and transactional scripts these were handed and effectively prevented conflict, advanced human privileges, and advertised global sustainability. Covering a wide range of traditional illustrations, from Yitzhak Rabin’s attempts for Arab-Israeli peacefulness to Dag Hammarskjöld’s performance as secretary-general of the US and Mahatma Gandhi’s pioneering usage of nonviolence like a political device, Jentleson argues that individuals can shape policy?because they have. For each leader, Jentleson tells us who these were as an individual, why they produced the choices they did, how they pursued their goals, and what these were able to accomplish. An ambitious reserve for ambitious people, The Peacemakers can be a useful instruction for anybody who would like to obtain meaningful change within the global stage.
