"As you go up the ranks, you have a responsibility to bring others with you."
Neridha Moodley leads People and Culture at SNG Grant Thornton, driving an inclusive, purpose-driven workplace where talent thrives. Her leadership is anchored in a deep commitment to developing people, fostering equitable policies, and shaping a culture that attracts and grows purpose-led professionals. She believes organisational success is built on strong, values-based foundations, with collaboration, leadership, excellence, agility, respect, and responsibility at the core.
She plays a central role in defining and sustaining the firm’s culture as part of its long-term vision, ensuring every voice is heard, diversity is celebrated, and leadership pipelines are filled with capable women and men ready to shape the future.
Neridha sees the People and Culture landscape evolving rapidly, driven by:
creating healthier, more resilient and engaged workforces.
integrating systems for a single source of truth, enabling meaningful analytics and real-time insights.
ensuring decision-making reflects diverse perspectives and equitable representation.
She believes that strong culture is the foundation of business success, defining how people interact, how clients are served, and how organisations grow. Under her leadership, policies and practices are designed to build inclusive, equitable, and transformative workplaces.
For Neridha, Women Powering Progress is more than a campaign. It is a call to action to bring more women into leadership and give them the tools, visibility, and confidence to lead. She has mentored multiple women into senior positions and continues to champion gender parity as a driver of organisational change.
Neridha’s counsel to the next generation:
"Realise that you are not just occupying a leadership position, you are changing leadership. Don’t shrink yourself to fit what is happening, extend yourself to lead."
When asked what Turning Growth into Shared Progress means to her, Neridha says:
