CFO Connect: Your Exclusive CFO Network
25th September 2025
Feature topic: How can we retain top female talent in finance?
Join us at our September Connect, where we will explore some of the challenges related to women in leadership and at the C-suite level.
Sharing her knowledge and experience in this area, we will be joined by Christina Lewis, who has over a decade of scaling business in some of the fastest-growing tech companies, including as a senior leader at Deliveroo & Bolt. Chrissie has built a reputation as a leader in retention, emotional intelligence and gender equity.
A Cambridge-certified coach and sought-after speaker, she’s received multiple accolades, including being named a WiHTL "Woman to Watch" and winning "Best Use of Employee Voice" for her gender equity work. She is the founder of Herizon, an organisation that delivers talks, training & coaching on emotional intelligence and retaining gender diverse leadership.
Chrissie will be helping us to take the lid off: The Leadership Pipeline Challenge: Understanding the current state of women aspiring to and achieving leadership roles in finance. The Power of Difference: Identifying and valuing the unique perspectives and strengths that women bring to complex financial challenges, and Building a Future-Ready Finance: Actionable takeaways for leaders to foster an inclusive culture that attracts, develops, and retains top female talent.
With diversity and inclusion the top agenda for an increasing number of high-growth and highly successful UK businesses, this is a fascinating and very optimal topic that can yield significant returns and benefit us all!
