🗓️ June 20th | 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM EST
📍 York University, Founders College, 99 Ottawa Road North York
Join us for an intimate live podcast recording and networking evening with Zabeen Hirji — a trailblazing leader, former Chief Human Resources Officer at RBC, and one of Canada’s most respected champions of inclusive leadership.
From starting as a bank teller at 17 — just three years after immigrating to Canada — to becoming the first South Asian woman in the C-suite of a TSX 100 company, Zabeen’s story is one of resilience, purpose, and reinvention.
Today, in her Purposeful Third Act, Zabeen is an Executive Advisor at Deloitte and a globally recognized speaker, connector, and LinkedIn Top Voice, continuing her life’s work: unlocking potential and building inclusive prosperity across sectors.
🎧 What to Expect:
A live behind-the-scenes podcast interview where we explore Zabeen’s leadership journey, mindset shifts, lessons from failure, and how she continues to redefine purpose after decades of success.
Curated networking opportunities to connect with professionals, community members, and Zabeen herself.
A rare opportunity to absorb 25+ years of wisdom in a 90-minute experience designed to leave you inspired, informed, and equipped to act.
🚀 Why Attend?
Because this is more than a podcast — it’s a moment of proximity. The kind of proximity that can collapse timelines for your growth, expose you to powerful perspectives, and leave you with more than just notes — it leaves you with clarity and connection.
