From engineering floors to global boardrooms, Srishti has built trust across languages and time zones.
Surrounded by gears and doubts, she learned that impact creates space for belonging.

Lessons have followed her through four continents—designing EV parts in the U.S., leading cross-cultural teams in Europe, and managing a $120M manufacturing project at Northvolt.

There, in a melting pot of languages, cultures and metric systems, she saw the real challenge: it wasn’t strategy, budget or deadlines.

It was trust.

So she flipped her leadership style: informal tech huddles replaced rigid meetings, rituals replaced policies, and engineers started celebrating together instead of competing in silence.

The result? Engagement soared. Silos cracked. Delays dropped.

Today, Srishti brings those same tools to stages and boardrooms, helping leaders everywhere build teams that don’t just work together, but thrive together.

Her talks blend engineering clarity with cultural empathy, packed with real-world strategies you can use next week, not next quarter.
