Meet Yvonne. She is the national managing partner of Risk Advisory for Deloitte China. In this role, Yvonne wears many hats, providing managerial oversight, acting as a subject matter expert in the life sciences and health care industry, and serving as the lead client service partner for some of Deloitte’s most strategic accounts.
For Yvonne, the most exciting part of her work is its dynamism and the innovation it requires. As the business world rapidly changes, so do its associated risks—which means Risk Advisory professionals must address and anticipate risks with flexibility and creativity. Yvonne finds it fulfilling to meet these challenges and deliver value to her clients by developing and offering the best possible solutions for the problems she encounters.
Yvonne’s proudest accomplishments include projects in which the services she and her team provided led to success for her clients. She also takes pride in the successes of her colleagues and peers.
Those are the most exciting and proud times I have,
she explains,
when I see people grow and make milestone achievements.
In Yvonne’s opinion, Risk Advisory is an ideal career field for women. Risk Advisory professionals must be highly flexible, accommodating, and innovative, and must be sensitive to the rapid pace at which the world is changing.
When asked what advice she has for women who hope to pursue work in Risk Advisory services, Yvonne offers a simple answer: “Trust yourself. Be persistent. Don’t give up until you achieve your goals.”
We need more like Yvonne. We need more like you.
