Until the acts of terror against the World Trade Towers and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, George W. Bush struck many political observers as less than impressive in his conduct of his responsibilities. Since then there has been a dramatic transformation in his performance. The differences can be usefully highlighted by contrasting his pre‐ and post‐9/11 performance in the realms of public communication, organizational capacity, political skill, policy vision, cognitive style, and emotional intelligence.
