Ahead of this year’s International Women’s Day, join the ACT and Forvis Mazars for an inspiring conversation that brings the theme “Give to Gain” to life - showing how sharing knowledge, visibility, and mentorship doesn’t just change individual careers, it transforms treasury teams and the future of the profession.
Our dynamic panel of senior female treasury leaders will openly share their career stories - the twists, pivots, and breakthroughs that don’t always make it into job descriptions or CVs. From non-linear pathways into treasury to navigating promotions, qualificatios, and global moves, this session pulls back the curtain on what success really looks like in highly technical and specialised roles.
The panel will explore the real impact of mentorship versus sponsorship, why both matter, and how actively advocating for talent accelerates pipeline development, builds confidence, and drives stronger team performance. Attendees will gain insight into how visibility and guidance can be game-changers for women in niche treasury specialisations, helping them see what’s possible - and how to get there. A recruiter’s perspective will round out the discussion, offering practical insight into how shared stories and sponsorship influence hiring, retention, and leadership readiness.
At its heart, this session embodies “Give to Gain.” When experienced professionals give their time, share their journeys, and champion others, everyone gains - individuals grow faster, teams become more resilient, and organisations build sustainable, high-performing treasury functions.
Expect honest stories, practical takeaways, and a renewed call to action: to share more, mentor with intent, sponsor boldly, and help open doors for the next generation of treasury talent.
This event is open to everyone who would like to join us for the evening. We warmly welcome male allies, mentors, sponsors, and treasury champions and look forward to coming together for what promises to be a truly inspiring, engaging, and celebratory evening.
