Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Leaders in Law: Brendan McGuire
Q: How did your prior experience influence your decision both to join the Adams Administration and also your work during that administration?
Brendan highlighted that public corruption work provided him with a unique perspective on how public officials operate and the challenges they face, enhancing his understanding during his time in the administration.
Leaders in Law: Ambassador Robert Kimmitt
Q: I wonder if you have any advice that you'd give to those interested in pursuing a career in public service or in national security?
Get as many experiences as you can. Don't be one of those people who's an inch deep in a thousand things but couldn't find a bottom line with the Waze app.
Leaders in Law: Ambassador Robert Kimmitt
Q: Could you talk a little bit about how your private practice compared to and differed from what you had been doing in the public sphere?
Ultimately, in government, you have one client or maybe two clients, the President of the United States and the American people. In a law firm, you're going to have many clients, many opportunities, and many different matters to work on.
Leaders in Law: Ambassador Robert Kimmitt
Q: What were some of your most memorable moments from your time at the NSC and maybe some of the lessons learned?
The lesson that I took from my time at the NSC is, first of all, if someone is going to spend time in government, having some opportunity at an early point in your career to spend time at the White House gives you a good sense of how government works and sometimes doesn't work.
Leaders in Law: Ambassador Robert Kimmitt
Q: Could you tell me a little bit about your early years and where your inspiration in pursuing a career in the public interest really came from?
The inspiration for public service came from our parents. My six siblings and I have all served either in the military, the civil service or both.
