Description

In The Duel, distinguished Canadian columnist and author John Ibbitson writes a dual biography of two of Canada’s most consequential prime ministers: Lester B. Pearson and John Diefenbaker. Offering a gripping account of the contest between these two leaders who fought each other relentlessly, his book gets to the heart of what it means to work in the Canadian public sector, posing questions about the role of the federal government, the role of provinces, and how language and regions are incorporated into our institutions and governance structures.

By examining the leadership styles of Diefenbaker and Pearson, participants will gain insights into the crucial components for managing leadership challenges and achieving a lasting influence.
