Join Co-Hosts Dr. Rick Arrowood and Dr. Leslie Hitch as they catch up with their former student, Ishaku Haruna, now Dr. Ishaku Haruna. A Molecular Biologist, Dr. Haruna fondly reflects on his time in the classroom and shares his amazing journey of remaining connected to rural communities in Africa. His passion for helping young people--whether improving the school facilities or activating a 'can-do' personal attitude--inspires rippling effects among village chiefs, religious leaders, and the community at large. Ishaku shares an important lesson in practicing leadership: "It's ok for a leader to take a step back and let others lead-especially those with established power and influence. Leaders don't always have to be the "one" in the spotlight. Spend your time enabling them with your message of change so that they can get the job done more effectively."
