and conquer the fear of failing on the path to the top

女性如何克服潛在的偏見及對通往領導階層失敗的恐懼

So, what’s all the hype around women in leadership — in particular, women in
banking leadership? Why does it matter? It matters because the profitability of your
institutions and the banking industry as a whole depend on how you address (or don’t) the
issues facing women in your workplaces.

It is more than just wanting more women in leadership roles just to say we have them.

Research around women in the financial services sector indicates approximately 50%
of first-level managers are women. However, you go a few short years down the road to
