With fears of a prolonged recession receding, there is less threat of further retrenchments in the 2010. The Financial Women's Association (Singapore) will look to tapering off the Career Retooling Program which was aimed at helping those in the financial industry pull through 2009. Following on from forces that have shaped the downturn, most of us will be starting 2010 with reduced personal wealth and a work-life imbalance. Given this setting, the FWA would like to propose the optimistic approach in crafting out solutions on how to grapple with challenges in the 2010 and the immediate future.

 

The FWA has invited four top women leaders representing various industries in Singapore to share their take on how to meet 2010 head on. The distinguish panel of speakers are:

 

The distinguished panel will give their personal perspectives on where women fit in the future economic and social landscape of Singapore. Given their diverse industry experience, these insights will be shaped by their own industry background namely transportation, technology, real estate and banking respectively. The dialogue should include discussion on how to encourage more women to take up leadership roles in the areas of global business and politics; dealing with the ever-persistent challenge of maintaining a work-life balance; and what solutions to motivate more women to return to work after taking a career break to have children.

 

Join us for what promises to be an exciting, insightful and thought provoking event. This key-note event is made possible with the generous sponsorship of Standard Chartered Bank.
