In this episode of Together: A Higher-Ed Podcast, Harvard professor and bestselling author Dr. Arthur Brooks explores meaning, belonging, flourishing, and leadership in today’s university culture.
Arthur Brooks shares his remarkable journey from classical musician to internationally recognized social scientist, reflecting on how purpose and belonging have shaped his path and research.
