Insights from a global panel of women leaders in accounting, exploring influence, ethics, personal branding, and leadership challenges in a male-dominated profession.
Summary
In this special episode of the Accounting Apps Podcast, I moderated a global panel discussion at the Accounting & Business Show Asia 2025 in Singapore. I was joined by Kyelie Baxter (IQ Accountants), Uthaya Ponnusamy (RSM Singapore), and Magdalene Ang (R Chan & Associates, ACCA Singapore Chair) for a panel session I moderated called Influence, Integrity and Impact: Navigating the Reality of Women Leading in Accounting
 
Together we explored:
 
✅ Career journeys and leadership pivots
✅ Building confidence and personal brand (hello USP!)
✅ Ethics vs. earnings — where we draw the line
✅ Mentoring, connection and navigating invisible barriers
✅ Creating influence with integrity and making an impact
 
Listen if you're looking for insight, inspiration, or real-world stories from women reshaping leadership in accounting.
