Relationship Building, Not Hustle: The Real Key to Finance Careers a Conversation with Amanda Pullinger

Virtual Chapter

Mark your calendar for Wednesday, April 8th as Erika Fleming and Anita Hill Sands, co-leads of the Virtual Chapter of Women in Securities Finance, invite you to a virtual conversation with Amanda Pullinger on one of the most underrated career skills for women in finance: relationship building.

Amanda is the CEO of Debbie’s Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer and formerly served as the CEO of 100 Women in Finance, where she helped grow the organization from 100 women in the hedge fund industry to a global network of more than 35,000 members across 19 countries. She is also the Co-Founder of the Global Female Investors Network and serves on several Boards and Advisory Boards. Amanda’s career has centered on building high‑impact professional communities, making her perspective on strategic networking especially valuable.

In an industry that often celebrates "the grind," Amanda will break down why performance alone isn't the differentiator for leadership and how to build a strategic network that advocates for you when you aren’t in the room.

We hope to see you there!
