Of all the charismatic leaders who made their mark on American history, there is arguably none who did more to shape the nation’s course than a reticent legislator from Virginia. Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) might have lacked the gifts of great orators and raconteurs, but he possessed a powerful flair for writing, and was widely recognised for his wisdom, judgement, and diplomacy.

Leaderonomics CEO Roshan Thiran shares leadership lessons he learnt from the third President of the United States of America.
