David Gergen: How Great Leaders Are Made

On this episode, Donny sits with former presidential adviser and author of the new book Hearts Touched with Fire, David Gergen. Donny and David discuss why the younger generation isn’t as prominent in our current government and why David thinks the older generation should be getting ready to step away. David also shares whether he believes leaders are made or born, his advice for speaking "conscience to power," and why he celebrates all voices- especially those with opposing views. But first, Donny is back with this week’s "ups" and "downs" naming Tik Tok , Paul McCartney, Cricket, and Ryan Gosling among many others in Brands of the Week.
