Students in Dr. Hasegawa's The Language of Leadership class got an extraordinary opportunity before Winter Break: a live Zoom session with Jay Heinrichs, the celebrated author of Thank You for Arguing: What Aristotle, Lincoln, and Homer Simpson Can Teach Us About the Art of Persuasion.
Heinrichs answered students’ questions about rhetoric and leadership, and offered tailored advice on the students' final speeches—set to be delivered to the MBS community in January—providing a masterclass in persuasion from one of the field’s modern luminaries.
His book, a cornerstone of the course, has captivated readers worldwide. Published in 14 languages and four editions, it boasts over 500,000 copies in print. As Heinrichs' website proudly notes, it even cracked Harvard's list of top ten assigned readings.
