Join Walt Rakowich for a thoughtful conversation about leadership that puts people first. On the next episode of Off the Rak, Dr. Christian Ntizimira — a Rwandan palliative care physician, Harvard-trained researcher, and Executive Director of the African Center for Research on End-of-Life Care — shares how prioritizing compassion, dignity, and community can redefine how we lead, especially in moments of crisis. We explore practical ways to design empathy into institutions, honor presence over quick fixes, and recognize how much culture matters to nurturing trust. From personal stories in Africa to addressing global health challenges, Dr. Ntizimira’s work at the intersection of medicine, culture, faith, and leadership invites you to rethink what it means to care at the collective level and to lead with humanity at the center.
