SHE MEANS BUSINESS: Breaking the banking barriers with Absa's Julia Shisia

From building a career in banking at a well-known institution to taking a step back to a little-known institution to focus on motherhood, Julia took a risk that finally paid off and today, she has a seat at the table as the executive director of the top bancassurance intermediary in Kenya.

Julia speaks about the importance of being a skilled negotiator, especially as a woman seeking to rise up to the C-Suite.

This week on She Means Business, we talk to Julia about crushing the glass ceiling in the male-dominated banking field, why she doesn’t believe there is such a thing as work-life balance, and what financial decisions have shaped her life.
