The award, which recognises those leaders who have brought their team through challenging times to success, celebrates the essential role of leadership in our industry.
In previous years, the EWIFA event has seen a diverse range of winners in this category.
In 2023, at the Langham Hotel in London, DTCC’s Marla Dwyer took the award, saying, “Leadership is a privilege. My achievements are only possible because of my team. Ultimately, my job is to make sure that my team is supported and given the opportunities to develop and grow. I believe it is critical that members of a team know they are empowered, have a voice and understand that they each play a meaningful role in the work that is done.”
At the same time the need for recognition was driven home by Bloomberg’s Paula Fry, winner of the award in 2022, when she spoke of her earlier career in trading.
