The Ms. Engineer Way

Thought Leader: Alana Hill

February 16, 2022

Alana Hill, PMP is an international change leadership expert, inspiring professionals to lead change in themselves and others to create inclusive, resilient, and competitive organizations. In this episode, we learn more about Alana, including how she was the second black female Petroleum Engineer to graduate from Texas A&M. #BadAss

We cover a lot of ground with Alana, but one of the many standout acronyms is what she calls SOS, which stands for self-care, optimism, and support. These are three key ingredients for our resilience, and for us to succeed against all odds as women in a male dominated space. “Trying to be a man is a waste of a good woman.” This episode is so good you may find yourself listening to it twice!

If you want to learn more, buy one of Alana’s books AND join us at the 2022 WEN Conference in Fort Worth to hear her closing keynote presentation.

BONUS TRACK: At the end of the episode, keep listening to learn how Paula McCann Harris became Alana’s mentor and friend.
