The last few days have passed in a flurry of activity for Parveen Hafeez, managing director of Sunrise Hospitals. Parveen is in the U.S. to attend the Fortune/U.S. State Department Women Leaders Mentoring programme. She is one among three business women selected from India.

Dressed in a business-like black sari that complements her offices’ black and white colour scheme at Sunrise Hospital in Kakkanad, she is the picture of confidence. “There are so many deserving women out there just as good or better for the programme. I am just one of the luckier ones,” Parveen says at the outset. She had been nominated by the Kerala State Women’s Development Corporation. Besides being the founder chairperson of the Ladies Forum of the Kerala Chamber of Commerce and Industry, she is an executive committee member of the Kerala Management Association and is also on the advisory board of the Kerala Financial Corporation.
