The London Institute of Banking & Finance and We are Dandi were delighted to host the event, 'The power of mentors: Is mentoring the answer to improving female progression in finance?'

Our panel, a team of passionate women who have each forged successful and inspiring careers in the financial industry, discussed the role of mentoring. What exactly does mentoring in the financial industry entail and how can it help women overcome the key barriers in forging a career in finance?

In an industry where women make up just 14% of the executive level, should we be looking further at the advancements that mentoring can create? We heard from our panellists about their own experiences, mentors, and how they forged their career paths.
