Celebrating Journeys That Inspire

From Projects to Impact: Veenu’s Leadership Journey

Veenu Kamboj, CSPO, is an emerging product leader with 11+ years in IT and is pursuing her Master’s in IT & Management at Dallas Baptist University. As President of DBU’s PMI Student Organization, affiliated with PMI Dallas, she sharpens her focus on purpose, value, and growth.

Lessons that shaped Veenu’s leadership:

Impact over output: Success is measured by the value you create, not just tasks completed.
Lead with why: Clear purpose drives smarter decisions and stronger results.
Grow beyond comfort: Real progress begins when you challenge the familiar.
Build trust daily: True leadership comes from credibility and relationships, not titles.
Lean into community: The right network accelerates learning, confidence, and transformation.

Closing Thought:

Being part of PMI Dallas and serving in a student leadership role has shown me the power of community. Learning from mentors and peers has strengthened my confidence and shaped the leader I aspire to be.

What No One Tells You About Leading at the Next Level

Hazel-Ann McLean is an author, keynote speaker, and executive mentor who helps women and organizations build future-ready leaders. She empowers leaders to drive impact through resilience, innovation, and intentional growth. A trailblazing leadership expert, Hazel inspires confidence and transformation at every level.

For project leaders ready for more:

Lonely at the top: As authority grows, safe spaces to think, test ideas, or admit uncertainty often disappear.
Doubt is normal: High performers still wrestle with clarity; effective leaders create trusted spaces before high-stakes decisions.
Leadership is relational: Influence thrives through aligned peers, thought partners, and honest advisors. Build your circle intentionally.

Closing Thought

Many women in leadership are quietly burnt out—not from lack of ability, but from navigating complex terrain without support. Hazel is building a community for women ready to lead from strength. Stop shrinking to fit.
