- Title
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Presencing, and the Court-Packing Plan of 1937.

- Abstract
History often provides evidence of many types of leadership. Senge, Scharmer, Jaworski, and Flowers's (2004) work on presence, for example, can be used to understand the presidential success of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This article examines Roosevelt's aptitude for "presencing"-reflecting and allowing inner knowledge to emerge-by concentrating on a proposal to change the judiciary that appears to have failed. The Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937, known as FDR's court-packing plan, was defeated in the U.S. Senate, yet taken in context, it exemplifies his spirit and, paradoxically, helps explain his successes.
