A It requires resilience, conviction and the ability to earn trust in an industry where credibility is built over time. For Yukti Nagpal, those qualities were forged while navigatinga sector where leadership was traditionally associated with men.
"Leadership is not about asserting authority. It is about creating trust through knowledge, integrity and execution. The strongest leaders create environments where people feel empowered to contribute, innovate and grow," she says.
For Yukti, the role ofa leader extends far beyond delivering successful projects. It is about building high-performing teams, encouraging fresh ideas and fostering a culture where people can thrive. While she welcomes the growing presence of women in leadership, she believes the real measure of progress lies beyond representation. Women, she says, must have an equal voice in shaping strategy, influencing business decisions and defining organisational vision. She views diversity of thought as a business advantage rather than a social aspiration, arguing that organisations are stronger when different perspectives are part of the decision-making process. She hopes future generations will be recognised Realty not as women leaders, but simply as exceptional leaders whose capability, vision and purpose define success.
