crisis leadership

It’s been a bruising 24 hours for Rishi Sunak including a ministerial resignation, emergency prime ministerial press conference and a former home secretary now firmly on manoeuvres.

Amol and Nick discuss the Today programme’s exclusive interview with that former home secretary, Suella Braverman, and analyse how much trouble Sunak is now in. Will there be a leadership challenge?

As he’s shoring up his leadership the former prime minister Boris Johnson is trying to secure his legacy at the Covid Inquiry. What will history’s verdict on him be? Sir Simon Schama provides his perspective on how Johnson’s time in No10 will be remembered, long into the future.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, a major scandal as leaked emails reveal that the Democratic mayor of Nashville was covering up COVID-19 data in order to fraudulently continue the lockdowns. We’ll talk about this story and also ask: given everything we’ve seen recently, why would anyone vote for a Democrat to run their city or state? Also Five Headlines including Trump’s “patriotic education” initiative and a video of an unhinged woman berating a CVS employee for calling the cops on shoplifters. And in our Daily Cancellation, we’ll cancel the people burning JK Rowling’s books because they’re mad that she believes men have penises.

As a former top adviser to presidents Clinton and Obama, he believes in the power of the federal government. But as former mayor of Chicago, he says that cities are where real problems get solved — especially in the era of Covid-19.

President Trump insists he has total authority over the states, The Daily Show correspondents offer video chatting etiquette, and astronaut Christina Koch chats with Trevor.

With entire states now locking down, the officials making these decisions need to start providing real answers. We need to know when this will be over and what the end game is. Instead we get vague platitudes while lives are destroyed. Meanwhile, some members of Congress have been dumping stocks based on information they receive in private briefings. How can we trust these people and their decision to lock down the whole economy? Plus Five Headlines. I will attempt to find five that have nothing to do with the China Virus.

Today on the show, we’re in the midst of a global pandemic and the bad news is that our elected leaders do not seem interested in or capable of leading us through this. Also, Five Headlines, including a vile product that was being sold by Amazon. It's off the site now, but the fact that it was ever sold in the first place should tell us something. And handshakes have been canceled for the foreseeable future. But what greeting should take its place? We'll sort through that important issue today.

We all know people who have a certain magnetism and charisma. What is it exactly that makes them so compelling?

My guest today explores that question in his book Compelling People: The Hidden Qualities That Make People Influential, and primarily locates the answer in two such hidden qualities: strength and warmth. His name is Matthew Kohut and today on the show he explains why it is we find the combination of strength and warmth so attractive in others, and how we can cultivate these traits ourselves, including in the way we dress, carry ourselves, and talk. Matt then gives advice on how to display strength and warmth in different situations we might find ourselves in, from acing a job interview to managing a crisis at work. We end our conversation with that most perennial question of body language: what to do with your hands when you speak.
