SUMMARY:PIMFA Learning: Authentic Leadership: How to thrive as a female leader in wealth and finance-2025
DESCRIPTION:According to the Financial Conduct Authority\, ‘senior jobs are still mostly for the boys’. And\, whilst more regulated financial services firms are treating gender diversity as a business priority\, the evidence on a sector level would suggest women still remain under-represented at senior management and leadership levels. \nAs a leadership development program for women in finance and wealth\, we directly address the challenges women executives often face\, helping them to develop the confidence\, connections and actions needed to achieve their potential. \nThis unique coaching programme delivered virtually by executive coach\, Caroline Holt\, is endorsed by The Institute of Leadership & Management and CPD accredited by CISI. \nThe PIMFA Authentic Leadership programme is a six-month programme divided into six training modules\, with a new module released every four weeks. \nIt is also an arena for sharing experiences\, practising the tools – as well as a place to get inspiration\, support and the motivation to help you achieve your goals. \n
