Delve

Leadership During Unprecedented Crisis


Listen Later

In the throes of a pandemic, we’ll hear from someone who is all too familiar with leading through unprecedented crisis. That person is Shaun Donovan, former United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and Director of the Office of Management and Budget under the Obama Administration.


In discussion with Professor Sebastien Betermier, Shaun tells the story of how he helped steer the U.S. out of The Great Recession, led rebuilding efforts following Hurricane Sandy, and worked to remedy veteran homelessness -- a story rich in lessons that remain as relevant as ever in the wake of COVID-19.
