Leadership Lessons From Thomas Jefferson

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." (The Declaration of Independence; July 4, 1776, first drafted by Thomas Jefferson).

Of all the charismatic leaders who made their mark on American history, there is arguably none who did more to shape the nation’s course than a reticent legislator from Virginia. Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) might have lacked the gifts of great orators and raconteurs, but he possessed a powerful flair for writing, and was widely recognised for his wisdom, judgment and diplomacy. In this Raise Your Game Show, Roshan Thiran will share the leadership lessons he has learnt from the third President of the United States of America.
