In this warm and compelling episode, we’re joined by Pooja – senior leader, transformation expert and passionate advocate for women in tech and leadership. Her story takes us from restarting a career in a new country to leading complex global programmes, uncovering strength in uncertainty and growth in discomfort.
We explore what it means to adapt across cultures, step into unfamiliar territory and stay true to yourself along the way. Pooja shares candid reflections on finding her voice in British corporate life, leading high-stakes projects like Terminal 5, and making the jump from operations to technology leadership.
With refreshing openness, she speaks about the power of asking for help, the myth of work-life balance and why she never looks for a perfect fit in her next role. This episode offers thoughtful insight into resilience, purpose and the quiet confidence that comes from backing yourself.
Key Learnings
You don’t need to know it all to say yes – Pooja highlights the importance of taking on new challenges before feeling fully ready, trusting that growth comes through action, not perfection.
Real change is always about people – Whether leading major tech transformations or adapting to a new culture, Pooja reminds us that success hinges on connection, collaboration and shared purpose.
