This year the Financial Women’s Association of Singapore (FWA) is launching its Leadership Dialogue Series: where outstanding leaders in the financial industry share leadership insights in an informal breakfast dialogue setting.

 

Boris Collardi, CEO of the Julius Baer Group and of Bank Julius Baer, has kindly agreed to be FWA’s inaugural speaker.  He joined Bank Julius Baer as its Chief Operating Officer at the beginning of 2006, following Julius Baer’s acquisition of three private banks and GAM at the end of 2005. He played a decisive role in the swift and successful integration of these banks and the subsequent positioning of Bank Julius Baer as one of the premier addresses in global wealth management. Prior to that, he gained extensive leadership experience in various functions during his 12 years at Credit Suisse both in Europe and Asia, including the positions of Global Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer EMEA of CS Private Banking

 

Mr. Collardi is no stranger to Singapore and amongst his many appointments, is on the Singapore Management University’s Advisory Board.

 

Please join us for what promises to be a frank and insightful discussion on perceived differences in leadership skills between men and women, particularly in the areas of succession planning, mentoring and strategic thinking.
