Dr. Maurice L. Harris on Creative Leadership and Telling Stories That Matter
<p>In this inspiring episode of Yale College Voices, host Darice Corey sits down with Maurice Harris, Deputy Director of the Yale Schwarzman Center, musician, and creative leader whose career spans corporate communications, nonprofit work, higher education, and music.

Along the way, Maurice shares candid insights about restlessness, growth, and learning to trust that different chapters of a career can belong together.</p><p>Throughout the episode, Maurice connects art-making and leadership, drawing from his doctoral work focused on the leadership philosophy of Martin Luther King Jr. and his Yale seminar, Art Making and Leadership: An Integrative Approach. He talks about creating space for artists and audiences at the Schwarzman Center, listening deeply to feedback, and leading with humility. From his experience producing Grammy-ballot music to advocating for student voices through digital exhibitions, Maurice offers thoughtful reflections on staying true to your work while serving a broader community.
