Leadership Lessons from Toussaint Louverture

In this episode, Richard Lummis and I explore leadership lessons from Toussaint Louverture, who led the only successful slave revolt in the Western Hemisphere. Our remarks are based on the recent biography of him entitled, Toussaint Louverture by Phillipe Gerrard. While not an obvious character for study in a business leadership podcast, Louverture nonetheless presented several important lessons which translate into to today’s business environment.
