Description
A podcast for leaders and changemakers, Intersections reveals what it takes to make an outsized contribution to humanity—cutting across disciplines, uncovering principles and practices, and drawing from the lived truths of those who have been walking that path. Hosted by Mentora founder and Columbia Business School professor Hitendra Wadhwa, Intersections seeks to activate our best selves by dissolving boundaries—between profit and purpose, theory and practice, east and west, science and spirituality, inner and outer, and more.
