The Covid pandemic forced us to look once more deeply into politics, and to seriously reflect on what we expect from our leaders. The political community is the overarching community and thus political leaders necessarily must attend to a broader array of circumstances than any other leaders (scientific, academic, economic). That makes prudence, or good decision making, all the more difficult and necessary.
Dr. Kevin Roberts’s experience in politics and government will help us come to grips how different priorities and responsibilities did -- and sometimes didn't -- factor into decisions during as Covidtide unfolded.
