Preferred term

Lyndon Johnson  

Definition

  • Few leaders have been granted the ability to generate change long after their tenure of leadership has passed. The leadership approach taken by Lyndon Johnson was instrumental not only in creating the Great Society in the 1960s to combat racial and financial inequality, but also in generating government programs that continue to be a driving force in the 21st century. [Source: The SAGE Encyclopedia of World Poverty; Johnson, Lyndon]
