Unilever Director Nurdiana Darus Highlights the Role of Women in Companies

Director of Communications, Corporate Affairs & Sustainability at PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk, Nurdiana Darus, is one of those who believe that the role of women is crucial in a company. This is not without reason, considering the many great women in Indonesia who can be relied upon and become determining factors in driving company performance. Especially if the women in the company have good leadership qualities and strong commitment in pushing company performance. She is confident that the role of women in the future will be even greater in various fields. “If there is leadership among them that includes women, the company’s performance will definitely increase by 21%, this is based on data from Accenture. What we see is also very interesting data from UN Women, for example, women tend to invest first back to their family and the focus of investment is on health and education,” explained Nurdiana at Top Woman Fest in Sarinah, Jakarta, on Saturday (25/4/2026). It is known that Nurdiana has been with PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk since 2019. She has been involved in many sustainability initiatives and has held various senior leadership roles, including as Deputy Minister of the Indonesian government’s National REDD+ Agency, Senior Advisor for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Director of Rainforest Alliance, Inc. Southeast Asia, and senior positions at Accenture. With hard work and clear goals in achieving strategic positions in the business world, she deserves to receive the award as Top Woman in Purpose-Driven Leadership at Top Woman Fest 2026.
