Author Roman Popadiuk served in the Bush White House from 1989 to 1992 as deputy assistant to the president and deputy press secretary for foreign affairs. In that capacity, he was closely involved with many of the day-to-day decisions of the administration during a momentous period that saw the dismantling of the Berlin Wall, the rise of a new global coalition, the curbing of a dictator’s expansionist policies in the Middle East, and shifting domestic, economic, and political currents.
In this important volume, Popadiuk examines the ways in which the personal leadership style of George Bush influenced the formation and execution of policy. Popadiuk composes a mosaic of events, quotations, and observations that yield a broad view of the ways in which a president’s personal qualities and philosophies impinge upon leadership options.
General readers and public service professionals will find The Leadership of George Bush informative and enlightening, and scholars of the presidency and public policy will discover new avenues for research on both the Bush administration and executive leadership and policy.

In this important volume, Popadiuk examines the ways in which the personal leadership style of George Bush influenced the formation and execution of policy. Rather than attempting a definitive analysis or history of the Bush administration, Popadiuk composes a mosaic of events, quotations, and observations that yield a broad view of the ways in which a president's personal qualities and philosophies impinge upon leadership options. In particular, The Leadership of George Bush outlines a number of key Bush management rules, the values that underpinned them, and the factors - such as upbringing and work experiences in the private sector - that helped shape his values and management style. Popadiuk examines Bush's role as a communicator, his relationship in Congress, and his approach to both domestic and foreign policy issues, reviewing both Bush's successes and his failures. General readers and public service professionals will find The Leadership of George Bush informative and enlightening, and scholars of the presidency and public policy will discover new avenues for research on both the Bush administration and executive leadership and policy.
