It’s Up to Us: The Importance in Advocating for Women in Banking
Natalie Bartholomew, The Girl Banker
Being a woman in banking means a lot of different things in 2025. We are juggling the balance of our careers and family, dealing with potential burnout, and doing what we can to make strides in a male-dominated industry. In Natalie's session, you'll be inspired to advocate for the women on your team, challenged to bring up the next generation of women in banking, and will receive some direct takeaways that you can put into practice immediately after the conference. If we don't do it, who will? |
