EMBA students take to radio to talk about community involvement

Published: 12 October 2017

EMBA participant Leanne Bayer is the executive director of West Island Community Shares (WICS), a non-profit based in the West Island that fundraises to support smaller non-profits. She recently joined her fellow EMBA classmate, Davender Gupta, on his podcast co-produced with radio station The Beat 92.5 to talk about the lessons she learned over her decades of community work in third world countries, the moving stories she has come across, and our collective responsibility to get involved when people are in need.

As they near the final project in the EMBA program, both Bayer and Gupta reflect upon the value of their studies thus far and how it has instilled a renewed confidence and purpose that they will bring into the workplace.
