Serendipity, inclusive spaces and equity based leadership with Meena Waseem

Students and young professionals are facing barriers, uncertainty, biases, changing priorities and now a pandemic as they navigate the school to work transition. Their collective stories have inspired me and now I want to share these stories with you.

Now, let's meet Meena! Meena Waseem is an enthusiastic and self-driven BCom student from The Smith School of Business at Queens University with an expected graduation date sometime in 2023.

Meena is a meaningful risk taker who always aims to leave people and places better than she found them. She is an avid public speaker and advocate for equity-centered leadership and accessible health services. She is deeply invested in people and has received multiple awards for her work, including being named Kitchener Waterloo’s youngest Woman of the Year. Meena has also been recognized at the national level for her leadership as a recipient of the Loran Scholarship, Canada’s most competitive undergraduate award.
