How do we lead in alignment and authenticity?

Join us in this conversation with Dr. Aftab Erfan, Executive Director of the Centre for Dialogue at Simon Fraser University (SFU), Associate Member at SFU School of Public Policy, and a board member at the Vancouver Foundation.

Together, we delve into the complexities of dynamics through the lens of conflict and social justice movements. We explore tensions between grassroots activism and institutional power, noting that suspicion and mistrust interplay when women of colour enter leadership roles.

Aftab shares what brings fulfillment and purpose amidst societal pressures to stay true to herself. She highlights the importance of bridging the gap of understanding and dialogue between those in positions of influence and those advocating on the margins to effect transformational change.
