Listeners are welcomed to Season 4 by Dr.Audrey Laporte, Director of IHPME, who thanked the students and alumni of IHPME for creating and sustaining the Built to Lead Podcast, a companion offering of Vernissage Health.

In this special live launch, Ene Underwood, currently CEO at Habitat for Humanity (GTA), starts Season 4 with an engaging conversation about what it means to be a rebel for a cause and her leadership journey from the private sector to health care to housing.

Ene reflect on some pivotal learning moments in her career and encourages us all, as leaders, to have patience, leverage our power, and do the homework to become effective leaders of change.
