Fatima Zaidi: The slow slog....um....no...skyrocketing her way to CEO.
At the age of 17, Fatima Zaidi moved to Toronto from Oman and start her first year of university. After graduating with a degree in HR from University of Toronto she moved on to HR roles in a number of Toronto based corporations. Tenacious and quick thinking it didn’t take her long to realize a slow placed, bureaucratic corporate environment where success is rarely tied to merit wasn’t for her. Fatima needed to make a move; it was time to pivot. Her next move …a start-up …and she’s never looked back since, her career sky rocketed, and she is now the Co-Founder and CEO of Quill.
On our episode today Fatima talks to us about her career and barriers that women of colour face when entering the start up world.

From The Podcast
Her Climb: Women of colour talk about leadership and resilience in a changing world.
In this podcast, Her Climb, we speak with women of colour about leadership. The strength, resilience, and unique perspective of these women has a hand in shaping the world we live in today, however all too often we don’t hear their voices or see them. Studies on women can group all women into one category, minimizing the unique experiences of women of colour. Through our conversations we begin to understand what diverse and inclusive leadership looks like and how we can begin to create organizations that make space for women of colour to lead.
