Secrets of Leadership: John F Kennedy

on BBC Two England

Nearly 40 years after his assassination in 1963, the 35th US president is still regarded as one of the greatest leaders of the 20th century: a war hero, accomplished writer, brilliant orator and loving husband. But was JFK as virtuous as he appeared? Andrew Roberts shows how Kennedy concealed his flaws and gained public admiration by creating his own myth - a blueprint that has since been adopted by leaders across the world.
