Welcome to How Leaders Lead. I'm Kula Callahan, here to bring you another edition of three more

0:08.4

questions with David Novak. David Novak, it's great to be back with you. How are you?

0:12.6

I'm doing great, Kula, and I'm really looking forward to this one because we're diving into the

0:16.9

conversation we had with Dr. Bob Grossman, the CEO of NYU Langone Health. You know,
