Despite significant progress in gender equity in the last decade in Australia, as of August 2024 only 23 out of the ASX100 CFOs were female. Research shows that women in C-suite positions enhance performance, but leadership in finance remains male-dominated.
As part of our commitment to create meaningful impact, and to support gender diversity in leadership roles, we set out to understand more about the underrepresentation of female talent at the highest levels of finance and how it’s possible to overcome the challenges women face in getting there.
Featuring insights from 15 of Australia’s leading female CFO’s, our Empowering Future Generations report explores the five key themes these women attribute their success to. From the importance of choosing the right company through to expanding skillsets in finance and non-finance roles, these stories offer valuable insights and aim to inspire and support emerging female finance talent.
