She was honoured with the HerPower Award at the conclave.

Singh has an astute understanding of people, enabling her to gauge the strengths and weaknesses of her team members and provide them with opportunities that cohesively complement the organisation's working style and yield the best results. She believes in setting clear goals to ensure the professional and personal development of all. This is also the secret sauce of her effectiveness as a leader. For her, leadership is about letting people realise their true potential. So, she helps them make decisions with an eye on the future and an ear to the ground.

As a leader, her values are sacrosanct: she demonstrates respect for her team and colleagues in the industry, along with an honest approach to everything. This has helped her come a long way in terms of earning not just the respect of her peers, but in achieving the optimal functioning of her organisation. Even when she fails, she ensures she learns from it. Singh strongly believes in the adage ‘if you trip, make it a part of the dance'.

What may seem like a daunting task to many has been an invigorating one for Singh. She has been navigating change by focusing on connecting with diamond industry representatives and consumers alike to understand changing behaviour and purchase decisions in a dynamic environment. She has gauged evolving industry trends and actively planned to make things different, and accounting for the fallout.

She also introduced a pioneering two-day virtual diamond festival, featuring celebrities, experts, industry thought leaders and connoisseurs who united to revel in the brilliance of natural diamonds. These one-of-a-kind initiatives set the stage for the council to collaborate with ace designers and Maison houses alike to highlight their inspiring journey with natural diamonds.
