| Abstract | Women leaders are playing an increasingly vital role in shaping sustainable business practices across the globe, and India is no exception. As corporate sustainability becomes a key priority, the presence of women in leadership positions has been linked to more ethical decision-making, long-term environmental responsibility, and inclusive growth strategies. This paper explores the impact of women leaders on driving sustainable business practices in India, examining their influence on corporate governance, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) frameworks, and organizational policies. The study highlights how women executives and entrepreneurs contribute to sustainability by integrating eco-friendly initiatives, fostering social responsibility, and advocating for ethical business practices. It delves into real-world examples of Indian women leaders who have pioneered sustainability-driven enterprises and transformed corporate cultures to align with global sustainability goals. Moreover, the research discusses the barriers that women in leadership face, including gender biases, societal expectations, and structural challenges within corporate India. Through a review of existing literature, case studies, and empirical analysis, this paper underscores the significance of gender diversity in leadership and its correlation with sustainable business growth. Policy recommendations are proposed to enhance women’s participation in leadership roles and to promote sustainability-focused corporate strategies. The findings suggest that empowering women in leadership positions not only enhances business performance but also accelerates the shift toward a more sustainable and responsible corporate ecosystem in India. |
