ILead Podcast
Welcome to the ILead podcast, produced by the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering in the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering at the University of Toronto, where we talk about essential process of leadership development and its human impact on the engineering community. What’s leadership you may ask? At ILead we believe that it’s the skills and mindsets that foster self-awareness, self-efficacy, empathy, teamwork, and the ability to navigate organizations and systems in society that help engineers lead change to build a better world.
