I’m a Houston- based attorney, run an HR Consulting company called Claremont Management Group, and am a tenured professor at the University of St. Thomas. I’ve also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents.

I’d love to hear from you!   As always, the opinions expressed in this podcast are mine and my guests’ and not the opinions of my university, my company, or the businesses with which I am connected.   Photo credits: AnnaStills; MA; Anatolii Mazhora; v_creative; Polonia Video; Photology80; Dzianis Vasilyeu; SVZUL; Valery Vasilyeu; VadymLoginov; Evgeniy Shkolenko
