Ford's GC David Leitch on Leadership During Crisis (Rebroadcast)

David Leitch is no stranger to crisis. During his career, he was chief counsel for the Federal Aviation Administration during the September 11th terrorist attacks where he was responsible for closing the skies to commercial flights, recruiting qualified Air Marshals, and turning airport security over to TSA. In addition, he was Ford Motor Company's group vice president and general counsel during the auto industry bailout, when the survival of vital suppliers and General Motors was in doubt. Fortunately, his in-and-out government employment armed him with the tools to manage the legal affairs of our country's largest and most important institutions during critical times. In this rebroadcast episode of In-House Legal , Randy Milch interviews David Leitch about his career path, crisis management, and leadership. Tune in to hear his opinions about GM's bailout and bankruptcy as well as facilitating an ethical company culture. David Leitch is general counsel and a group vice president to Ford Motor Company where he's worked since 2005. Prior to that, Leitch served in the White House as deputy counsel to President George W.
