It was a memorable and fun event, and thanks so much to UC Berkeley Haas Master of Financial Engineering Program and Fiona Taft, SHRM-CP for inviting me as one of the panelists to talk to the current female MFE students. I was inspired by the stories of my fellow panelists! The MFE program is consistently ranked the top 3 in the US. Some takeaways from the talk: - Build your network of allies, mentors, and sponsors now. Communicate clearly what you want to do. - Be confident you already know a lot (probably above everyone else in the room) and go for the opportunity given. - How to advocate yourself if you are the only woman in the room? Have allies (male and female) and don’t let anyone else take away your idea or credit. - How to tackle imposter syndrome (which only concerns competence and not self-esteem)? Learn how to externalize losses and internalize wins (i.e. don’t blame yourself for the bad that happened)! Be aware of perfectionism and burnout. - Take good care of your health when you are young. Have quiet times and engage in joyful activities. - Spread your financial knowledge and help improve financial literacy. Talk money more! #womeninfinance #womeninquants #careeradvice

The answer? Inclusive leadership. Learn more in a new op-ed by Sonja Volpe from BNP Paribas and Paulette Senior, from The Canadian Women's Foundation: https://bit.ly/41JFJ6i

This is a very interesting and simple explanation of equality and equity.
There's an important difference between equality and equity that, surprisingly enough, is abundantly clear when you take a brief look at public bathrooms (and their waiting lines). Jamila Rizvi explained at our 2023 Leadership Summit.
