Leadership in Turbulent Times is a 2018 book by Doris Kearns Goodwin and was published by Simon & Schuster. The book covers the lives and leadership skills of four US Presidents Goodwin previously studied: Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon B. Johnson.
Divided into three sections, the first section covers the early lives and political rise of the leaders. The second part describes setbacks. The final section studies an executive action for each president that demonstrates leadership. As Goodwin's eighth book, Leadership in Turbulent Times was released in 2018 and received positive reviews for its readability, research, and accessibility, whereas multiple reviewers criticised the book's final section.[1][2][3]
