Leadership Experience


Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong leadership abilities, particularly in the areas of public health research, capacity building, and implementing innovative solutions. My work has consistently involved bringing together diverse teams, fostering collaboration, and driving impactful results.

Implementing Modern Systems in Healthcare

As a leader in implementing a software-based inpatient management system at Faridpur Medical College Hospital, I played a pivotal role in transforming the department's workflow. This project required not only technical expertise but also the ability to motivate and train end-users, including senior physicians and department heads. Overcoming challenges such as tight timelines and resistance to change, I ensured successful deployment and adoption of the system.

Training and Mentorship

As a MITS trainer, I have taken on the responsibility of training and mentoring newly appointed physicians, equipping them with the skills needed to conduct complex procedures. My approach ensures that team members not only learn technical competencies but also develop an understanding of ethical practices, such as obtaining consent. Additionally, I have facilitated high-impact training sessions, including Research Methodology and IPC training, which have strengthened the capacity of healthcare professionals across institutions.

Driving Research and Field Activities

My leadership extends to field-based research initiatives, such as mortality surveillance and environmental sampling at healthcare facilities. I led efforts to identify facility-specific sources of neonatal sepsis and worked with teams to implement solutions like introducing individual suction tubes in neonatal care. My ability to translate research findings into actionable interventions has had a measurable impact on improving health outcomes.

Team Building and Strategic Collaboration

Working with multidisciplinary teams at icddr,b and CHAMPS, I have built strong professional networks and collaborated with international researchers, academics, and policymakers. My leadership style emphasizes clear communication, shared goals, and a focus on outcomes, ensuring that projects move forward efficiently and effectively.

Inspiring Vision and Adaptability

My journey from a medical graduate to a public health researcher and software developer reflects my visionary leadership and adaptability. Whether designing AI models to predict pregnancy complications or crafting manuscripts for journal publications, I approach challenges with curiosity, determination, and a commitment to excellence, inspiring those around me to strive for the same.
