This week, we hear from Dr. Jeannette Ickovics, a transformative leader with a track record of local, national and global impact, as we consider what makes a successful leader. She generously describes how she’s built multiple pioneering programs from the ground up, and shares her effective practices focusing on infrastructure, sustainability, leadership development, and growth. We also hear about her strategic partnerships across private, public, philanthropic, community and academic sectors and the ways those efforts are tackling our present-day global health challenges. The conversation becomes personal as Dr. Ickovics recounts her journey, not as one who set out to be a leader, but as one who saw the needs in front of her and started addressing them one step at a time. We return to community as she talks candidly about the mentorship that guided her sometimes zig-zagging career journey. We also reflect on the transformative impact of working alongside others in authentic relationships. Join in for this inspiring conversation with a remarkable trailblazer who leads with authenticity, rigor and purpose.
