Association of Women in Finance’s Women on Boards

Research shows that Boards with women members significantly out perform all-male boards in areas of key governance. Despite this knowledge, not all companies have put this into action. On April 14th, the Association of Women in Finance will host an interactive panel discussion with women who have sat on boards of a wide range of companies and who have enjoyed many successes in the board room and in their careers.

Hear about their experiences and what it takes to succeed in the boardroom. Our panelists are business leaders who have the experience serving on for-profit and not-for-profit boards:

Patrice Pratt – Vancity

Janice Comeau – Legal Services Society

Betty Harrison – BC Ferries

Tracey McVicar – BC Hydro

Wanda Costuros – BC Hydro
