Sandhya Ramesh and Zoya on Culture and Change at the Godrej Industries Group
The ‘DEI’ in the Godrej Lab’s name expands to ‘D’ for diversity, the representation of various populations in a given group of people; ‘E’ for equity, which means fair treatment for all people in a group, by taking each individual’s unique situation into account; and ‘I’ for inclusion, which is about a culture that makes every individual feel like a valued part of the group. Godrej isn’t unique in this respect. But it’s striving constantly to get inclusion right.
In this episode, Parmesh Shahani speaks to Sandhya Ramesh, the DEI Lead at Godrej Consumer Products Limited, and Zoya, who spearheads DEI for Godrej Properties Limited, about the story of inclusion at the Godrej Industries Group – how far we’ve come, how we got here, and how we’re going to go.
Sandhya and Zoya talk about scaling queer inclusion in a predominantly male workforce, the importance of meaningful disability inclusion initiatives, ensuring representation and fair treatment across leadership roles, and how to measure progress sustainably beyond DEI awards. The duo unpack challenges, celebrate progress, and discuss how a 127-year-old company is preparing for a more inclusive future.
Join us for insights into scaling inclusive hiring practices, fostering workplace equity, and creating cultures where diversity isn’t just a goal but a core value.
