Liz Fomegne portrait

I am Maxwell.

In her previous role as policy team lead for the Maternal and Child Health Bureau at the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and in prior roles at the CDC and the NIAID, Liz Fomegne says she has drawn on her Maxwell leadership training almost daily—including an exercise from the opening M.P.A. Colloquium. “The point of the exercise was that there has to be delegation. There have to be roles assigned. There has to be clarity about how you manage this process.”
