Ira Chaleff and Max Klau: To Stop a Tyrant

Sep 17, 2024


Join Ira Chaleff, author of the new To Stop a Tyrant: The Power of Political Followers to Make or Break a Toxic Leader, in conversation with Dr. Max Klau.

While the world focuses on leadership, Chaleff knows there are no leaders without followers. His pioneering work on courageous followership is used in hundreds of leadership programs across the world and includes the practice of intelligent disobedience. While the body politic has polarized into antagonistic camps, Chaleff is Chair Emeritus of the non-partisan Congressional Management Foundation. He has facilitated retreats for over a hundred congressional offices on both sides of the aisle. Rounding this off, is years of coaching in federal agencies from which he draws savvy insights on bureaucratic behavior. He will talk about his new book, To Stop a Tyrant: The Power of Political Followers to Make or Break a Toxic Leader, based on these rich experiences.
