Show Notes

Leadership requires care. Care that extends to the people around you, for whom leaders are responsible. But also care for the practice of leadership itself.

Ideas about this extend back to Plato, who engaged in many conversations about the responsibilities of leaders, the dangers of too much power, and considering the good of others.

Princeton professor Melissa Lane, whose book Of Rule and Office: Plato’s Ideas of the Political, joins us to explore the impact of Plato's ideas today, as we struggle with concepts of accountability and servant leadership.

Timeless Leadership has been named a Top 50 Podcast in the Management category by Goodpods.
