Breaking Biases – Further Reflections on IE Women’s Week
Cfa Society Spain – Women in Finance Committee was founded in 2017 with the aim of promoting the concept of “Diversity” in the financial market, a market that is mostly composed by men. In these days, women represent around 20% of the CFA Charterholder at a global level and fortunatly this number is increasing every year.
Our organization Cfa Society Spain – Women in Finance Committee has been created with the aim of favoring networking between the Spanish female CFA Charterholders and to help them in their professional development. In accordance to this point, we think the IE mentoring program can help our mentees in improving their abilities meeting other women with a brilliant future. Giving the opportunity to interchange ideas with other women with different background, different professional experience, different language and may be from different continent have been key elements for taking this easy decision.
From the other side, female CFA Charterholders attendance give the opportunity to other mentees to solve their doubts about the financial carrier having direct access to female financial professionals.
How do not take advantage of this opportunity?
