Let us know: what is saving YOUR political life right now?

The Good Politics podcast, presented by Lead Ethically, explores what it means to lead well in our cultural moment. We ask questions like: ”Are good politics really possible?” and ”What will it take to overcome our partisan divide?” Hosted by political scientist Dr. Jessi Bennion, PhD, Good Politics will explore current events through the lens of leading well, offer insight into some of the most important issues in politics, government, and leadership today, and interview those who are in the trenches of local governments, nonprofits, and the private sector. If you believe in ethics over power-grabbing, communities over partisanship, and hope over cynicism, tune in to Good Politics. Learn more at leadethically.com.
