The New President’s First 100 Days
As a member or friend of CoREM, you have been selected to join a prestigious blue-ribbon panel to advise our new president on how to start his new presidential term. As a person with a recognized interest in leadership, you will join a group of peers to recommend some “best practices” of leadership in this critical time. You will focus on leadership practices of what is arguably the world’s most significant leadership position: President of the
There are dozens of critical issues demanding attention of the new president: the economy (
Perhaps more importantly, how should the President set the tone for his term in office? How should he establish a connection with the public, in his new role?
How should he establish the initial relationships with other countries?
How should he establish productive relations with congress? Are their lessons to be learned from leadership transitions in the business world?
Franklin Roosevelt used his first 100 days to lay the foundations of the New Deal. Lyndon Johnson capitalized on his own legislative experience and the national trauma following the assassination of Jack Kennedy to push through the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and a major antipoverty measure. But other presidents have been side-tracked by taking on issues early in their administrations that are unwinnable and/or too divisive. In Jimmy Carter's first 100 days he mishandled the job of pushing his own legislative agenda. He couldn't work with Congress. He alienated key Democratic constituencies. And Bill Clinton got completely off focus by wrangling with congress over allowing gays in the military.
The financial crisis calls for immediate action—perhaps a slew of new regulations are required. But how can the new president get these and other urgent things rolling, have early wins and avoid the mistakes of previous presidents?
What should the new President say about the previous administration (if anything)? Should he carry forward or repudiate any particular policies or practices? Should he reach across the isle and appoint members of the opposite party to key positions.
You know from previous sessions how engaging and energetic the CoREM sessions are. Expect this special Election Day session to be supercharged!
