Bio
Olamide O.
I recently collaborated with Niharika for research purposes; It was a pleasure to hear about her story full of courage, determination and perseverance as she navigated her way through her personal and professional development. Her strong female presence is really inspiring. From being awarded the MBA Dean's Excellence Scholarship to being the G100 Regional Chair for Scotland, Niharika has achieved many successes and I have no doubt that she will only continue to succeed more. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a strong and ambitious female leader.

Niharika Gautam is a very resilient, industrious, and intellectual person. She has charming personal traits and achieves her goals against all odds and obstacles that come on her way. We were the only two candidates awarded with the prestigious Full-time MBA Dean’s Excellence Scholarship in our batch and this award developed a unique connection between us. Niharika has won several awards like United Nations’ Karmveer Chakra, Exceptional Women of Excellence by Women Economic Forum, Strathclyde Women in Leadership and so on. Niharika is a certified ESG and Sustainability leader by successfully managing many ESG projects. She has commendable skills in aligning ESG skills into successful business models, strategical planning and execution, climate finance and frameworks. She is very keen in achieving UN’s net zero emission targets and it is not a surprise she is an Ambassador for the Circular Economy Institute for almost two years. Niharika also served as Regional Chair for Circular Economy, Scotland. I am very pleased to post this recommendation for Niharika and she will be an asset to any organisation utilising her innovative skill sets. I wish her the very best in all her future endeavours.
