Global Diversity & Inclusion Council: Bharti Gupta Ramola

Bharti joined the Indian firm in 1984. She is the Market Leader for PwC India and is a member of the Indian Leadership team. Her previous leadership roles have included Transactions Leader and Financial Advisory Services Leader.

Bharti joined PwC India at a time when there were few women in leadership positions. “All the major professional services firms in India had only men as partners. In 1992, I became the first female partner in PwC India, and the first female partner among all professional services firms in India.”

“Being a working woman in India isn’t always easy. Stereotypes are still strong and many women lack the self-belief to build a successful career.”
