Presidential Leadership, Insights for Year Two

The first year of a president’s term sheds important light on the character, capabilities, and policy priorities of the nation’s new leader. And, as history has demonstrated, the decisions taken during those intensive 12 months usually shape the entire arc of an administration.

President Biden entered the White House at an unusually demanding time in US history, facing the very large challenges of defeating a once in 100 years pandemic and of reopening and revitalizing the US economy on the heels of the most abrupt and precipitous economic downturn since the Second World War. 

CED’s Policy Watch roundtable discussion will reflect on first-year legislative successes and policy missteps, and how they will shape the economic, social and political trends in 2022. Among the key issues that will be addressed:

  • The economic recovery—what went right, what went wrong and what lies ahead in 2022;
  • The pandemic—leadership successes and failures and lessons learned for the coming year;
  • The global challenges of year one and the impact on year two;
  • The impact of the midterm elections on policy and legislative agendas in 2022;
  • The lessons of presidential leadership in year one and how they have impacted year two.

Who should attend: Business executives and public policy leaders who are seeking to learn more about the historic economic and public health issues on the presidential agenda, the importance of presidential first years trends and the impact on the trends and policies in year two.
