Distributed Leadership in the Obama Campaign
March 19, 2009

The Obama campaign owes its victory not to a single charismatic candidate, but to the efforts of 
a disciplined and motivated organization whose roots go back to landmark movements of the 1960s. 
Marshall Ganz describes how the principles and practices he learned around organizing and 
leadership played out in the most recent presidential election.
