EP 8 - Stepping Up: Nathalie Bausch on Sponsorship, Self-Imposed Limits & Career Moves

In Episode 8 of The Gender Finance Podcast, we speak with Nathalie Bausch, CEO at DWS Investment S.A. and COO at Deutsche Bank Luxembourg S.A., about how women and men may approach career opportunities differently and what influences those decisions. In conversation with Simon Gorbutt, Deputy CEO at Luxembourg for Finance, Nathalie revisits a pivotal moment in her own career to explain why sponsorship and challenging self-imposed limitations can be critical for progression. She also sets out what organisations can do to create an environment that enables employees to reach their full potential, and how leadership expectations and working patterns shape progression inside financial institutions. Nathalie closes with her advice for women entering the sector and why she remains passionate about advancing gender diversity.
