How I Learned to Lead in a Male-Dominated Manufacturing Company by  Miniya Chatterji After living away from India for 14 years, I returned three years ago to create and take charge of the sustainability department of Jindal Steel & Power, one of India’s largest manufacturing business conglomerates. I realized that in Indian business, power is still bafflingly associated with virility and manliness.

Not only did I have to establish the vision for the company’s sustainability — holistic growth of the company is how we defined it — but al...
