The document discusses promoting opportunities for women in finance. It begins by outlining government initiatives to promote women, including a women's business council and new policies around parental leave and childcare costs. It notes that more needs to be done to get more women into senior roles and boardrooms. Brenda Trenowden, President of the City Women Network, encourages young women to consider careers in finance and banking, noting the industry has become more diverse and there are more senior female role models, though more progress is still needed in achieving gender balance at senior levels.
This document discusses women in leadership and what established businesses can learn from women-owned businesses. It finds that women are increasingly leaving corporate jobs to start their own businesses. Women-owned businesses are succeeding and account for significant economic output.

Through interviews with over 35 senior women, the document identifies some key lessons for established businesses. These include the need to change organizational culture and structures to be more flexible, collaborative and accommodating of women's leadership styles and lives outside of work in order to retain female talent.

Carol Loftur-Thun discusses 4 trends facing nonprofits: increased government outsourcing of social services, national debt and aging population, growth of internet and social media, and professionalization of social services. She also outlines 4 challenges nonprofits face: being seen as a "pink ghetto" with low pay, being undervalued and under-resourced, needing a voice at policy tables, and leadership burnout. However, she argues there are also opportunities in social media, organizing nonprofits as the "third sector", innovating leadership models, and allowing for new business partnerships. Nonprofit leaders need skills in finance, management, social media, and communication.

Women in Management - The Power of Role ModelsStephen Wills
Women make up half of the world’s population, but they are nowhere near making up half of the leadership contributions. When it comes to management, women make up 60% of junior managers, but by the time you get to the top ranks this number barely makes it into the low double digits – and still fewer among our biggest businesses. Why?

The document also covers topics like lifelong learning, networking, paying it forward, and being involved in the community.
Encouraging women entrepreneurs for jobs and development Women’s Entrepreneurship Development Today, more and more women entrepreneurs are starting businesses and they now account for a quarter to a third of all businesses in the formal economy worldwide. However, the great majority are very small or micro enterprises with little potential for growth. Otherwise, women entrepreneurs are under-represented in enterprises of all sizes, and the bigger the firm the less likely it is to be headed by a woman. Societal attitudes and social beliefs inhibit some women from even considering starting a business, while systemic barriers mean that many women entrepreneurs stay confined to very small businesses often operating in the informal economy. This not only limits their ability to earn an income for themselves and their families but restricts their full potential to contribute to socio-economic development and job creation. The World Bank’s World Development Report 2011 suggests that productivity could increase by as much as 25% in some countries if discriminatory barriers against women were removed. Removing these barriers, such as discriminatory property and inheritance laws, cultural practices, lack of access to formal financial institutions, and time constraints due to family and household responsibilities, will create greater opportunities for sustainable enterprises run by women. This in turn will contribute to women’s economic empowerment and gender equality as well as helping to generate sustainable growth and jobs. While removing barriers is essential, investment is equally vital. Investing in women is one of the most effective means of increasing equality and promoting inclusive and sustainable economic growth. Investments in women-specific programmes can have significant knock-on effects for development, since women generally spend more of their income on the health, education and well-being of their families and communities than men do. While targeted measures can bridge the gap for women, it is also essential to remove discriminatory aspects of economic and social policies and programmes that may impede women’s full participation in the economy and society.

The Creation of the Total Quality Management (TQM) Commission - PhilippinesFriends of The Group
The document proposes the creation of a Total Quality Management (TQM) Commission in the Philippines through an executive order from the President. It argues that institutionalizing quality management in government is needed to address issues like graft and corruption.

It would oversee the creation of TQM units within all government offices and integrate existing quality programs and regulations. The goal is to transform the government to achieve quality in areas like governance, education, industry, society and the environment.
Women face significant challenges advancing their careers in the Indian advertising industry due to rampant sexism, lack of family support policies, and toxic work cultures. While women make up 40% of new hires, very few rise to leadership roles. The advertising world remains a "boys club" where women face constant objectification, sexist jokes, and assumptions about prioritizing family over work. The few women who do achieve high ranks, like Swati Bhattacharya, had to fight prejudices and demand accommodations for their roles as working mothers. For the industry to progress, leadership must establish policies like paid parental leave and crack down on discrimination and harassment. Mentorship networks and a shift from an ego-driven

This document proposes a methodology to estimate bus passenger loads using only automatic vehicle location (AVL) data. The methodology involves several steps: (1) estimating high-level network demand based on original schedules and AVL-based headway deviations, (2) decomposing AVL-based dwell times to estimate boarding and alighting times per passenger, (3) estimating trip-level load profiles using local regression on dwell times and previously calculated constants, and (4) determining typical load profiles based on trip-level estimates. The methodology was tested on AVL data from Dublin buses and produced estimated load profiles for sample routes, though further validation is still needed. Future work may focus on improving maximum load point selection and considering temporal factors

The document advocates for improving support systems and changing social attitudes to promote greater social and economic participation of women entrepreneurs in Pakistan.

1) It helps address skills shortages as women now make up a large portion of the college-educated workforce.
2) Diverse organizations will be better able to attract and engage millennial employees, who value diversity and flexible work environments.
3) Gender diversity at leadership levels allows companies to better understand different customer demographics and make better decisions.

Women, Barriers and Authentic Truths for Building a BusinessStephanie Breedlove
Entrepreneurs are the revolutionizers of the economy, and experts think the future of American entrepreneurship is in the hands of women. Yet new female entrepreneurs have fallen from 43.7% of total in 1997 to 36.8% in 2015. Women-owned firms generate only 3.8% of U.S. revenue and employ 6.2% of workers. 1.8% of their firms have revenue over $1M, and the percent has remained steady since 2000.
Why aren’t women starting and building growth businesses? Join Ingrid Vanderveldt and Stephanie Breedlove for a session filled with research and transparent insights of the barriers facing entrepreneurial women, the benefits of change for society and the economy, and how in the world to get there.

This document discusses diversity and women in FinTech. It highlights several organizations that are champions of diversity. Makers Academy discusses their efforts to invest in women in FinTech by training 350 people annually in software engineering, with around 35% of each cohort being women. They provide discounts and scholarships specifically for women. One graduate, Ruth, was able to change her life situation by learning to code at Makers Academy. Hogan Lovells also discusses their commitment to diversity both internally and externally with clients. They have set a target of 32% of management roles being held by women.
The role of women entrepreneurship in economic growth and problems and prospectsRANI REENA
women empowerment, women entrepreneurship, economic growth of India, problems facing by women entrepreneurs, government schemes for women entrepreneurs,The women consist of around 49.6% (Source: UN, World Population Prospects: The 2017 Revision. New York: United Nations) of global population. Women Entrepreneurship plays a very important role in the development of any nation. The Women entrepreneurship leads to the creation of capital as well led to the generation of many social benefits. However, entrepreneurship is not so popular and common in the developing nations like India. Women entrepreneurs create new jobs for themselves and others and by being different also provide society with different solutions to management, organization and business problems as well as to the exploitation of entrepreneurial opportunities Therefore, sometime will be spent on what needs to be done in order to attain improved and more reliable estimates on the impact of entrepreneurship and in particular women’s entrepreneurship, on economic development. However, they still represent a minority of all entrepreneurs. Through this study, we have tried to throw some lights on problems and opportunities for women in the area of entrepreneurship. One of the important dimensions of inclusive growth is women’s direct participation in nation’s progress.
The document summarizes a presentation on whether expanding women's self-employment is a good thing. It notes that while self-employment can provide flexibility, it often results in poorer financial returns than employment and lacks welfare benefits. Women's self-employment tends to be in crowded, lower-margin sectors and many enter it out of necessity rather than opportunity. Pursuing both domestic and work responsibilities constrains business performance. Expanding women's self-employment should not be assumed to be universally positive without considering structural barriers they face.
This document summarizes a presentation by Kristin Slice on empowering women entrepreneurs. It notes that women-owned businesses have grown 3 times faster than the national average, and discusses benefits such as better employee treatment, higher innovation, and increased business returns. The presentation advocates establishing a collaborative initiative called Empowered PhXX to bring together stakeholders supporting women entrepreneurs through discussions, research, and initiatives addressing challenges. The goal is to leverage the economic potential of increasing women's participation in entrepreneurship.
Financial Institutions – It is possible to retain and grow female talent. Mark Freed
The business case clearly demonstrates that gender diversity in financial services is good for boards, good for management, good for business, good for the economy and the right thing to do.
So why do so many businesses allow valuable female talent to slip through their fingers?
In this report we explore what the Big Four consultancies (Accenture, Deloitte, EY and PWC) are saying and doing about investing in women, and how we at E2W are reversing the trend and growing and retaining female talent for the financial sector.
This is the slide deck from the December meeting of Empowered PhXX. During the meeting we defined what Empowered PhXX is, our efforts to date and why we gathered to talk about creating an overall message.
This document summarizes research on women in leadership roles in the financial services industry globally. It finds that while the representation of women on boards and executive committees has grown over time, the rate of progress remains slow. Female representation varies significantly between countries and sectors. The research also finds that women in financial services are more likely than their peers in other industries to leave their jobs mid-career, suggesting they face a "mid-career conflict" where the costs of continued advancement seem too high. Addressing issues like flexible work options, family support, promotion transparency and unconscious biases will be necessary to retain more women in the industry long-term.

in the
1 9 8 0 s ,
it was
a different world. I vividly remem-
ber attending a conference with my
newbosswhereheintroducedmeto
his business contacts.At one point
I happened to be standing near the
buffet when a man came up to me
and said: “You girls have worked re-
ally hard today.” It took me a mo-
ment to realise he thought I was a
memberofthecateringstaff.
Fortunately,I no longer meet peo-
plewiththatattitude,butIamoften
stillaloneoroneofjustafewwomen
at conferences and meetings.The fi-
nance sector used to be male domi-
nated and sometimes chauvinistic
towards women.Now it is still male
dominated but there are opportuni-
ties for women to land their dream
job in one of the finance profes-
sions,provided they have the neces-
sary determination to succeed.And
there are times when being a wom-
an can be a significant advantage.
When meeting clients,for example,
I find they seem prepared to discuss
personal matters that they might
not want to reveal to a man, such
as health or money concerns. That
makesiteasierformetotailormyfi-
nancial advice accordinglyand offer
abetterservice.
To reach the top, however, I feel
thatwomenoftenneedtoworkhard-
er,particularlyiftheyarejugglingca-
reer and family.When I began work-
ing as an independent financial ad-
viser I was a divorced single mother
and needed to arrange my working
life around my young family,which
meant working while they were
asleep.And although I now have my
own company, Compass Financial
Management, there is still no such
thingasanine-to-fiveday.
Clearly, running a business isn’t
for everyone but it’s important that
women are given more encourage-
ment to pursue the many different
careers available in the financial
sector, from a greater emphasis on
numeracy skills and understanding
basic finance in schools,to ensuring
they are able to return to work after
havingchildren.
Women themselves must be ready
to reach out for help and guidance.
Networking organisations likeWIBN
are great places to find support and
advice from other professional and
entrepreneurial women, as well as
business leads; while groups such as
Women in Banking and Finance run

en can develop their confidencewith
the encouragement and direction of

Finally,thecontributionthatwom-
en make within the finance sector
and in business has been underval-
ued in the past. That has to change.
If we want to encourage more wom-

needs to be more women on compa-

Promoting the cause of women in
business is now high up on the gov-
ernment’s agenda.In an attempt to
promote women across all walks of
working life, including such tradi-
tionally male dominated fields as fi-
nance, there is now a series of gov-
ernment initiatives aimed at pro-
motingfemalecorporateinterests.
So what can be done to get women
in to the boardroom? “The Women’s
Business Council was set up a year
agoandischairedbyRubyMcGregor-
Smith,”saysJoSwinson,LiberalDem-
ocratMPforEastDunbartonshireand
Minister for Women and Equalities.
“Itwillbepresentingitsfindingsnext
month,butwealreadyknowthatone
ofthebarrierstofemalesuccessiscar-
ing responsibilities. For this reason,
we are introducing a new system of
shared parental leave and a new tax
break for childcare costs worth up to
£1,200 per child per year from 2015.”
These proposals are very necessary.
InApril,theCranfieldInternational
Centre for Women Leaders report-
ed that in the previous six months
the percentage of female directors
appointed to FTSE 100 and FTSE 250
boards had fallen to 26 per cent and
29 per cent respectively,far short of
the 33 per cent required in order to
reach Lord Davies’s target of a quar-
ter of all board posts being filled
by women by 2015,set out in 2011’s
Women on Boards.
While pointing out that there has
been progress, not least in that one
third of new appointments to the
FTSE 100 over the last year have been
women, Swinson accepts that the
problem still exists.“We need to nur-
ture talent and keep the issue high
on the agenda,” she says.“It’s possi-
ble that there’s a degree of compla-
cencynowthattheissueofwomenon
boards exists, although it’s actually
gonefromnowomentoonewoman.”
This is particularly a challenge for
that formerly male preserve, the fi-
nance industry.“Careers advice and
guidance in schools is crucial,espe-
cially relating to the subjects girls
choose to take as early as 15,” says
Swinson. “This will influence their
choice of job.Then within the indus-
try itself,there must be the option of
more flexible working and job shar-
ing. Financial firms need to recog-
nise that if they don’t address these
issuesthey’llbecuttingofftheirnose
to spite their own face becausewom-
enwilltaketheirtalentselsewhere.”
Indeed, companies that offer
flexible working practices reap the
benefits from male and female em-
ployees alike, experiencing low-
er staff turnover,less absenteeism
and a more motivated and produc-
tive workforce.
As far as addressing the issue of
equal pay is concerned,the govern-
ment is driving greater transpar-
encythough a scheme calledThink,
Act,Report,to which more than 90
companies, with over 1.6 million
employees, have signed up. And
while the government favours a
voluntary approach to tackling the
problem, the Equality Act 2010 has
recentlybeenamendedtogivemin-
isters the power to require employ-
ment tribunals to impose equal pay
audits on employerswhere theyare
found to have broken the law. The
future,clearly,is bright.

Young women graduating
today should consider a
career in finance
Looking back on my career, 24
years later,it is interesting to note
that the bulk of my work has been
in international financial mar-
kets. While I did do my fair share
of number crunching when I was
an analyst and when I did my CFA,
my success has relied upon my
ability to build and maintain rela-
tionships with clients and to build,
develop and lead high-performing
teams.My career has taken me to a
lot of interesting places around the
world, and given me the opportu-
nity to meet and work with some
fantastic people, many of whom
have become good friends. And I
have seen and experienced some
amazing events. This is the result
of working in financial markets.
Changes in the industry
When I moved to London in 1991
to take up a job as a technical an-
alyst in a City firm it was a very
macho, male-dominated industry
and there weren’t many senior fe-
male role models. However, if you
were able to put up with the chau-
vinistic trading floor banter and
get on with the job, it was possi-
ble to develop a career. A trading
floor wasn’t the easiest environ-
ment for a woman, but I enjoyed
the work and thrived on the ex-
citement of the markets.
Today there is much greater rec-
ognition of the need for more di-
verse teams and for more balanced
styles. While the financial indus-
try has not yet achieved gender
balance at the more senior lev-
els, we have definitely smashed
through the glass ceiling and have
created some crawl space. There
are many more senior female role
models in universal banks,invest-
ment banks, fund managers, in-
surers and private equity houses,
and there is also much better fe-
male representation in industry
groups and networks.There are al-
so a number of dedicated women’s
networks such as the City Wom-
en Network, Women in Banking
and Finance,100 Women in Hedge
Funds, Women in Listed Deriva-
tives, etc. As a result, it’s much
easier foryoungwomen to envisage
a career in finance and banking.
My advice to young women
graduating today would be to
look at finance and banking with
a much more open mind than I
did. While I don’t like to general-
ise, women tend to be natural re-
lationship builders and are there-
fore well suited to client-facing
roles. Many have argued that part
of the blame for the financial cri-
sis was the aggressive,risk-loving,
male-dominated trading desks —
therefore, better gender balance
on the trading floor should result
in a more balanced risk approach.
While the financial crisis has
resulted in a lot of regulation to
wade through and a more restric-
tive environment for this indus-
try, it remains a fast-paced and
interesting sector where no two
days are the same.We need to en-
courage more young women to
join the industry and to stick with
it and help develop the executive
pipeline. We are seeing real pro-
gress in the number of female
non-exec directors, but we need
more female executive directors
to really have an impact.

■ When I graduated with
my business degree in 1989
I had no compulsion to go
into finance or banking.
Although I had done the
requisite economics,
finance and accounting
classes, I was far more
interested in international
business and general
management. I didn’t really
understand what was
involved in financial markets
and I assumed that a
finance-related career was
limited to number crunching
and analysis. It also seemed
to appeal much more to the
guys in my class than the
girls. As it turns out, my
first job was an internship
at IBM in Hong Kong as a

Nationwide, the world’s largest
building society, is a strong ad-
vocate for equality and diversity,
and was most recently listed in
The Times’ Top 50 Employers for
Women 2013.This is of particular
importance for Nationwide, as 67
per cent of employees are women.
Alison Robb, Group Director at
Nationwide, who chairs the Soci-
ety’s Women’s Network,is instru-
mental in the society’s efforts of
identifying and progressing tal-
ented women. She said: “Com-
panies need to think beyond a
box-ticking approach and really
start looking at the net benefits
of a diverse and balanced work-
force.At Nationwide,we have long
recognised the positives of hiring
the right people for the right job,
regardless of race, religion, sex or
sexuality. As a mutual organisa-
tion,with a relationship with 1 in
4 UK households,we are commit-
ted to serving our members,as we
don’t have shareholders.Diversity
in our workforce is one of the best
ways to achieve that.
“Many women choose to work
for Nationwide because they can
balance a rewarding and progres-
sive career alongside responsibili-
ties at home — evidenced through
eight out of ten employees return-
ing to work after maternity leave.”
Alongside the Times Top 50,Na-
tionwide was last year awarded
Gold status and a top ten place
in both the Opportunity Now
and Race for Opportunity bench-
marks — the gender and race
campaigns run by Business in
the Community. It was one of on-
ly two financial organisations to
appear in both of the top ten lists.
There is continued focus on
progressing female talent as Na-
tionwide pursues its ambition to
further increase the percentage
of women at senior levels, an as-
piration fully backed at board and
union level.
In terms of career progression,
high-potential female employ-
ees are selected, supported and
tracked. Results show that since
the introduction of Nationwide’s
Senior Executive Development
Programme in 2010, more than 35
per cent of participants have been
women. Additionally, 40 per cent
of its Next Generation Leader Pro-
gramme and over half of the or-
ganisation’s Future Leader Pro-
gramme were female.
Robb added: “We are never com-
placent and there is work under-
way to develop opportunities to
ensure women can achieve their
full potential at Nationwide.”

programme and is encouraging
aspiring women leaving university
this summer to apply.
University leavers face a host of
options when it comes to starting
work, with one of the most pop-
ular options being graduate pro-
grammes, which can provide the
perfect combination of develop-
ment and hands-on experience.
Nationwide offers two types
of programme — a General Lead-

four different placements across
two years, and a specialist pro-
gramme focussing on specific ar-
eas of the business. However, Na-
tionwide doesn’t insist on grad-
uates with finance degrees; it is
open to many disciplines, partic-
ularly for the General Leadership
programme.
Participants of the graduate
programme rated it 4.34/5, the

Graduate Ellie Kruszelnicka, 27,

Kruszelnicka believes Nation-

When Lisa Doole was growing up
her ambition was to be a dancer.
Her career has taken a very differ-
ent turn,however: she is nowa sec-
ond year associate working in the
audit department at accountancy
giant PwC.“My ballet was not good
enough,so after taking some time
out to travel,I decided at the age of
19 that I wanted something that
would enable me to stand on my
own two feet,” says Doole, now 24,
from Reading. “I decided to study
economics and accountancy, a
joint degree at City University and
Cass Business School.”
To a certain extent, her back-
ground had prepared her for it:
Doole’s father is a maths teacher,
and so clearly had passed on an ap-
titude for numbers,while her moth-
erwasahairdresser.Asachild,Doole
had helped her with receipts and
billing, a valuable experience for
later life. She had also always en-
joyedeconomicsatschoolandsothe
choicewasanaturalonetomake.
It was at a business fair at
university that Doole discov-
ered the Talent Academy at
PwC, a programme designed
to assist university students
starting out in a career in ac-
countancy. She decided that this
was going to be the career for her.
“After my first year I did a one-
week summer internship to get
an insight into what it was like,”
Doole, who is now based in Lon-
don, says. “I then did an 11-week
work placement between my sec-
ond and third year of university.
I was treated as a first-year asso-
ciate. After I finished my degree
I rejoined in September 2012 on
the graduate scheme, and I am
now training for the ACA (char-
tered accountancy qualification).
I have so far sat 12 of the 15 exams.
The next three will be in June,Ju-
ly and November this year, after
which I will be fully qualified.”
Exciting opportunities
A company like PwC,of course,pro-
vides huge opportunities globally.
“I’m having talks with my people
manager about the future,” Doole
says. She is currently working in
banking and capital markets in the
audit practice, which she says is a
great place to start to learn about
business. In the longer term, she
hopestoworkforotherdepartments
including advisory and business re-
coveryandintheverylongtermpos-

sector.“I’d like to work with a tangi-
bleproduct,”shesays.

What advicewould she give to other
women wishing to work in finance?
“If you know it’s what you want to
do, try to start early,” she says. “Ap-

the female talent pipeline
than quotas ever will.
Tackling male-dominated
culture is not only the
best way of making sure
organisations secure more
women in senior positions; it
is also key to keeping women
in corporate life at all levels.
Ensuring a balance between pro-

ics associated with assessing risk and price
setting.I sawthis as a great opportunityand a
personalchallenge.

negativity towards you as a woman working
in insurance?
Some of my female colleagues feel they have
to work harder than their male counterparts
to access the same opportunities. However

Lisa Williams, UK Casualty Director
■ What attracted you to a career in
insurance?
I had wanted to join the police but at the
time I was too short so my parents suggest-
ed banking or insurance.At my interview I
was so enthused by my interviewer about
the scope of insurance that I decided it was
for me.
■ How can young people be encouraged into
insurance?
We need to raise awareness about what we
do. For example, we enable industry, tech-
nology and science to innovate and develop
new products by covering some of the risks
that might prevent or at least slow down
innovation.We need to do more to get that
message across.
■ What would you say to your daughter
perhaps, who may be contemplating a career
in Insurance?
Absolutely, I would encourage her. It’s a
fantastic industry to work in particularly
if you like learning new things in an ever
changing environment.
Kate Roy, UK Operations Director
■ Are school age girls put off by a career
in insurance?
In my experience they are not.There is a

■ Is the image of the pinstripe suited
insurance man appropriate in 2013?
It is neither accurate nor appropriate,
however those perceptions still exist. So
the continued investment in diversity in
our senior teams will ultimately remove
thoseperceptions.

support your progression?
At AIG we have a particular focus on

lasAubertwith a emphasis on improving

PANEL OF EXPERTS
I learned early from my family that,al-
though men might earn money, it was a
woman’s job to look after it.Mygreat aunt
was particularly influential — probably
because she ran a sweet shop! So it isn’t
surprising that I’ve gravitated to working
with finance in all my career roles.
It was an accident. I was planning
on becoming a history professor and my
sister told me finance was the better op-
tion, so I decided to go for that instead.
I’ve certainly never regretted it. It was
the right choice to make and I have had
a very interesting career.
It was varied and exciting.
The industry plays a critical role
in the economy.I had different roles
in treasury and equity markets, as well
as international opportunities. I en-
joyed the challenge,the in-depth analy-
sis, the buzz of beating the market and
making money for our investors. It also
paid well.
My initial 20 years in financial infor-
mation technology were a rather circu-
itous route to my most recent role. But
I’ve never found it a problem being a
woman in finance — many of the most
influential leaders in sustainable fi-
nance around the world are female.
When you begin in finance and ac-
counting it’s simple as there are rules
you have to follow. But as you move up
the career ladder it becomes more com-
plex.You develop from a ‘doer’ to a man-
ager and then a leader and in transition
no one tells you what to do. You find one
day you’re in a senior role and you real-
ise no one told you how to do this.
Not mastering the internal
politics, since I didn’t participate
in the social activities of my male
colleagues. As the first female funds
manager I set up a lunch with women
when they joined the team.I was hauled
into HR and told to desist as the men
might find it divisive!
Strong skills in a numerate profes-
sional role will stand you in good stead
whatever you choose to do as your career
develops.You can take them into any in-
dustry or anywhere around the world —
and they are still the fastest route into
the boardroom.
You have to learn how to move on
and adapt. You also have to be open to
new experiences and try new things.
Your career doesn’t have to be linear. It
is important to learn to move on when
you’ve made a decision about what to do
next and not feel guilty.
Ask questions, be bold, and learn
how others have succeeded. Invest
time to create a strategy for your pro-
gression. Seek out endorsers and share
your ambitions with your bosses. Get
their advice and commitment to assist
you. Raise your visibility by getting in-
volved in working groups, internal and
external networks.

Question 3:

withintheindustry?
Having studied engineering at univer-
sity I wanted to broaden my experience
in a strong technical field. When I left
university Chubb offered me an oppor-
tunity within the business world that
fitted my background of versatile prob-
lem-solving skills and my aspirations.
I can honestly say that rather than dif-
ficulties I’ve always had support from
colleagues and managers, which has
helped me a lot. They have taught me
valuable lessons and given me insights
and guidance throughout my career.
Consequently I believe it is important
and beneficial to help others pursuing
similar paths.
Set goals and make them known —
how can colleagues help if they don’t
know what you want to achieve? Person-
al development is essential — qualifica-
tions; broadening your experience, net-
working, ongoing training and devel-
opment. Choose mentors/sponsors who
can help you develop and achieve your
goals.Be confident in your own abilities
and aspirations.

Understanding the Female Econo-
my, a report by Barclays Wealth &
Investment Management, shows
that when it comes to entrepre-
neurs, the gender pay gap is not
just diminished but reversed al-
together. Amongst high net worth
female entrepreneurs,the average
annual income stands at £382,000
— whilst male entrepreneurs
earn 14 per cent less, with an an-
nual income of £327,000. In con-
trast,the average income of a high
net worth woman who does not
own her own business is £217,000
— 21 per cent lower than the
corresponding average male in-
come of £273,000.
Claire Packham Certified Book-
keeper, who runs Team 4 Solu-
tions,anaccountancy&bookkeep-
ing business in Sussex, suggests
that running your own busi-
ness can provide the opportunity
to use a fuller range of skills.
“I always say that people buy
from people, not businesses. As
well as having great technical
skills as a bookkeeper,I need to be
an excellent communicator and be
prepared for total flexibility in my
approach. As professional service
providers, myself and my staff
workverycloselywith our clients.”
Whilst Claire did not set up her
own business with the direct in-
tention of earning more than
men,she does credit her entrepre-
neurialism for helping her take
more control over her lifestyle.
“I became a self-employed book-
keeper when my son was young.I
needed a job that I could do from
home with flexible hours to fit in
around my family. As my son got
older, I had more time to expand
the business. I now have over
200 clients and often find myself
working evenings, weekends and
right through the night; I think
that’s a product of running a busi-
ness you’re passionate about.
“Although I’ve been in this busi-
ness for over 25 years I can still
learn something new almost eve-
ry day,it’s what keeps me jumping
out of bed every morning!”
