Public Health and Business Leadership

“Every organization, every person, and every system has been fundamentally changed due to the pandemic. ‘Health first’ is the new expectation going forward. Public health training and expertise will be the key differentiators for business leaders as they navigate future challenges and threats and work to build resilient, health-focused organizations.”

Joseph G. Allen
Program Co-director
