Stories of leadership and service: Insights from executives
As part of Canadian Islamic History Month, APEX and the Muslim Federal Employees Network invites you to a learning event: Stories of Leadership and Service: Insights from Executives. In this session, Muslim executives will share their leadership journeys, what they’ve learned along the way, and how their identity has shaped their approach to inclusion, decision-making, and resilience in the federal public service. They will also speak about what it means to bring your whole self to work, and how to navigate leadership while balancing different aspects of identity. You’ll hear directly about the challenges and opportunities senior leaders face, and how personal experiences influence leadership styles and workplace culture. Come away with a better understanding of how authenticity and identity are not challenges to leadership, but key strengths that drive inclusive and effective outcomes. This session is a chance to learn from lived experience, connect with others, and reflect on what leadership looks like in practice.
