  • From Junior Analyst To CEO: How Sonya Mughal Led A Dynamic, 27-Year Career With A Single Employer
    May 17 2021

    Sonya Mughal is the first female CEO of Bailard, a San Francisco-based wealth and investment management firm that manages nearly five billion dollars. While women only hold 20% of leadership roles in the financial services industry, Bailard is 40% women.

     

    Sonya’s career stands out because she dedicated her entire 27 year career to Bailard, starting as a junior analyst in 1994, and later serving in multiple C-level positions (including chief operating officer, chief risk officer, and chief investment officer) before being appointed CEO. In contrast, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found, on average, women stay with their current employer for 3.9 years. For those of you who are debating whether to stay or leave your current employer, Sonya provides some insight on that calculus.

    A series of Nancy Wang’s conversations with female leaders. Previous entries include:
