In the new episode of our “educational” series The Audit, Dave, Josh and their study-buddy Kate Willett dive into the next two lessons of George W. Bush’s Masterclass: “Building a Strong Team,” and “Making Tough Decisions.”
The study group kicks off this week’s episode with a discussion about a moment of open corruption caught on tape during a Congressional committee hearing and how it crystalizes our current politics.
Then, the group unpacks W’s lessons on team building and decision making. Specifically, how his team was full of ruthless, corrupt Neocons, and how his decisions after 9/11 led to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
