Hi! I’m Jamie Woodman, an Information Technology student at Capella University with a growing passion for artificial intelligence and lifelong learning. I hold a Google IT Support Certificate and am currently preparing for the CompTIA A+ certification. I’ve always been fascinated by technology—even when I didn’t believe I was “tech-savvy” enough to belong in the field. Since beginning my academic journey, I’ve discovered just how much I can learn—and how much I enjoy it. I was recently honored to be accepted into the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS), which has inspired me to keep developing both as a leader and a learner. This blog is where I share my experiences as a student, my thoughts on technology, and helpful resources for others navigating a similar path. Whether you’re breaking into IT, exploring AI, or just looking for some inspiration, I’m glad you’re here.

Officially Inducted: What My NSLS Membership Means to Me

On July 1, 2025, I achieved something truly meaningful in my personal and academic journey:
I was officially inducted into the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS).

When I first received the nomination, I felt honored. When I accepted it, I felt motivated. And now that I’ve completed the Foundations of Leadership program and crossed the induction finish line, I feel proud—not just of the recognition, but of the growth that came with it.

NSLS isn’t just a title or a line on my resume—it’s a reflection of the work I’ve done to show up, lead myself, and support others on their path too. The program helped me sharpen my goals, step outside my comfort zone, and reflect on what kind of leader I want to become.

What NSLS Has Taught Me:

  • 🎯 Leadership is action – It’s about showing up consistently, not waiting for a title
  • 🧠 Self-awareness matters – Understanding my values and communication style helps me grow
  • 🤝 Connection is key – Leadership isn’t about being the loudest; it’s about listening and lifting others
  • 🚀 Growth takes intention – Every goal, SMART step, and reflection got me closer to who I want to be

I’m incredibly proud to be part of a community that values purpose-driven leadership and continuous self-development. And as I finish my degree and work toward certifications like CompTIA A+ and CAPM®, I’ll carry these lessons with me into every project, team, and opportunity ahead.

Here’s to leading by example—and building a future rooted in growth.

“Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge.”
— Simon Sinek
