While women have been a critical element of the workforce since the beginning of time, it’s only recently that women in leadership have become a holy grail for significant organizations that want to be seen as open and welcoming places to work. The data shows that organizations with significant representation of women (and other diverse leadership) on their boards and in their executive suites, regularly outperform those which lack these characteristics. Despite the overwhelming data that demonstrate women are good for business, organizations seeking to support women in leadership roles, not to mention the women themselves, continue to be frustrated by systemic and cultural barriers to success.
And yet, many women succeed despite the barriers put in their way. What are they doing right? How are their mentors helping them? What are their companies doing to change historically discriminatory dynamics? What are the best practices to create gender equality? In this conversation, we discussed women in leadership, with special guest Ukura Hodge., Assistant Branch Manager. As a highly reliable and resourceful Bank Manager at Island Federal Credit Union. She is committed to her duties, working hard to implement management strategies and processes to optimize and maximize performance. An accomplished business leader in the banking sector, she stands out for her sharp business acumen, ability to work collaboratively with her colleagues, and readiness to help her juniors set and achieve their career goals. Ukura holds a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations and Marketing with a Minor in Psychology, which aligns well with her professional field.

Her deep desire to serve, a knack for results, and her pursuit of excellence have steered her on the trajectory of success. She is an Alpha Sigma Lambda Honor Society member and SHRM member.
