thrive4women congratulates Broker Profits Vault and Alliance and all other winners and finalists of the MFAA's National Excellence Awards, announced last night.
We were thrilled to sponsor the Service Provider Large and Small Categories in the awards that celebrate innovation, excellence and outstanding customer service in the mortgage and finance broking industry.
It was tremendous to see several women among last night's winners who are mentors for our program. Our program supports the success, progression and retention of female brokers and industry professionals by bringing women together in a supportive and engaging online learning community. Through the program, we aim to help increase the representation, participation and influence of females and ensure that they continue to contribute to shaping the ongoing growth and success of the mortgage and finance industry.
In 2024, the latest research from the MFAA has identified that the key things that attract women to mortgage and finance broking are the ability to work flexibly, the ability to run their own business, helping customers and the financial potential. Yet as Jane points out, women remain significantly under represented as mortgage and finance brokers and many of the barriers they face in staying in the industry are invisible to others.
“Females are a major customer segment yet remain severely under-represented in key decision-making positions, and that is a major risk”
Rather than simply talk about why gender diversity is important in the broking industry, this Industry Influencers feature shows how women are continuing to encourage, support and empower other women working in financial services...
The argument for tackling gender diversity in the broking industry hardly needs to be repeated, yet...
If you want to drive cultural change it needs to happen across the industry as a whole, as well as within individual businesses......says Jane Counsel
