EP3: Leadership Without Limits – Lessons in Leadership from Dr. Zainab Abdurrahman

What You Can Find in this Episode

This month in The POD, I sit down with Dr. Zainab Abdurrahman, a trailblazing allergist, clinical immunologist, and leader based in the Greater Toronto Area. Dr. Abdurrahman’s journey spans continents and industries, from growing up in Nigeria and moving to Canada, to leading groundbreaking equity initiatives like the Black Scientists Taskforce on COVID-19 Vaccination Equity. As the President-Elect of the Ontario Medical Association, she’s passionate about fostering connection, inclusion, and systemic change within healthcare.

Dr. Abdurrahman shares how her parents instilled in her a problem-solving mindset, the importance of following one’s passions, and her goal of building a healthcare system that truly reflects and serves everyone. With insights on overcoming challenges like imposter syndrome and leveraging leadership as a journey, this episode will inspire you to rethink what leadership means and how you can make an impact.
