From immigrant to change agent: Rania Llewellyn, the first female CEO of a major Canadian bank

Howard Green, host of Connexion, talks with Rania Llewellyn about her journey from shy kid in the Middle East to first female CEO of a major Canadian bank. Born in Kuwait, Llewellyn became head at Quebec-based Laurentian Bank in 2020, without many local social connections or speaking French. She accomplished this feat in the middle of a pandemic and economic shutdown, the digitization of the banking industry, a crypto revolution, and the most inflation in years.
