Thriving as an Outsider. Many of us know what it feels like to stand on the margins; not only underestimated or overlooked by others, but also battling our own inner voice that says we don’t belong. Naeemah experienced this firsthand in corporate finance, where she was often mistaken for support staff or dismissed for speaking up. Yet those challenges, both external and internal, became the foundation of her leadership journey. In this session, she shares strategies to transform outsider status into strength and teaches participants how to step forward with confidence, visibility, and authentic leadership.
