Perspectives from the COVID-19 Pandemic
“Perspectives from the COVID-19 Pandemic: Leadership and Learning in Nevada” is a project which stems from research initiated in 2021 through a partnership between the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. and The Lincy Institute. Researchers at The Lincy Institute interviewed leaders across sectors to document their perspectives, assess lessons learned, and evaluate how communities continue to be transformed by the COVID-19 experience. Analysis of these interviews offers perspective on how the pandemic challenged and reshaped organizations, leadership, and policymaking.
