The ‘Remote Factory Girl’ – who rules Manufacturing Boardrooms now! | Iron Lady Speaks - Episode 05 ft. Priyanka Singla
Episode notes
Priyanka Singla did not build her leadership from the safety of an office. She built it where business gets tested — on factory floors, in difficult markets and inside rooms where she was often the only woman.
Her journey proves that when women understand the business from the ground up, they do not merely enter boardrooms — they influence what happens inside them.
In this episode of Iron Lady Speaks, Priyanka shares her journey from remote factories and mining sites to manufacturing boardrooms.
With two decades of experience across finance, sales, manufacturing, strategy, factory management and P&L leadership, Priyanka learned to make her voice count and connect her work to measurable business impact.
In this conversation, she reveals:
• How working in remote factories shaped her leadership
• Why diverse roles became her greatest professional strength
• How she made her voice count in male-dominated rooms
• Why professionals must connect their work to business impact
• How she moved a distressed business from red to dark green in 18 months
• How she built the case for a leadership role that did not exist
• Why her mother refused to let her give up her financial independence
• The three practical actions women can take to accelerate their growth
