For rising executives, moving into leadership roles with increasing responsibility and influence requires more than executing day-to-day duties. It demands the ability to envision and drive visible, meaningful ideas that lead to business outcomes and/or institutional change. This session outlines the strategic roadmap for turning a strategic business, market or innovation idea into a career-defining promotion. Our panel of prominent executives will deconstruct the mechanics of stress-testing an original idea, how to successfully execute it while also capturing the attention of an executive sponsor who can advocate for your ascension, and steps to leverage your success into a promotion. Our panelists will discuss: 

The Genesis of an Idea: How should a rising executive evaluate an idea to ensure it aligns with core corporate KPIs (e.g., efficiency ratios, new revenue streams) rather than just being a “passion project”?

Sponsorship vs. Mentorship: How do you intentionally transition a senior leader from a passive mentor who gives advice into an active sponsor who risks political capital for your advancement?

Securing the Promotion: Once the project succeeds, how do you formally position your leadership of that initiative as the primary business case for your promotion?

As banking and financial services evolve toward AI-driven operations, tokenized assets, programmable money, and digitally native financial infrastructure, women leaders must move beyond execution and develop the strategic influence needed to shape institutional direction and industry transformation.

This panel explores how emerging leaders can evolve from functional experts into enterprise strategists by building cross-functional influence, developing digital and regulatory fluency, and connecting innovation to business outcomes. Panelists will discuss the leadership skills increasingly required to lead transformation across banking, payments, fintech, capital markets, and digital assets in a rapidly changing financial landscape.

In this candid 1:1 interview, Lynn Martin sits down with Holly Sraeel to discuss a number of wide-ranging topics of crucial importance to the financial industry. Among them:
 
• Responsible innovation and market structure, including NYSE initiatives such as tokenization and extended hours trading
 
• Technology and AI, including NYSE’s Pillar system performing during market volatilit, and how the NYSE is implementing AI, including Project Glasswing
 
• Policy and global engagement, regulatory advocacy for the listed community, Martin’s recent participation in the House Financial Services Committee on how to sustain economic growth and capital formation, and her thoughts on the SEC eliminating the requirement for quarterly earnings reporting.
 
• The state of the IPO market

Women have made meaningful gains in banking leadership, but the path to the CEO office remains remarkably narrow. Despite years of progress, just two of the top 50 U.S. banks are led by female CEOs, exposing a persistent gap between executive representation and ultimate leadership. Why does advancement stall at the final stretch? This candid discussion examines the structural barriers that continue to shape succession—from unequal access to P&L roles and executive sponsorship to enterprise visibility and outdated expectations of leadership. C-suite executives will share practical strategies for building cross-functional influence, positioning for CEO succession, and shifting from functional operator to enterprise leader in an industry where the pipeline remains fragile and the stakes have never been higher.

The panel will discuss why the focus should move beyond leadership development programs to redesigning the executive pipeline itself, including:

Banks are under pressure to modernize technology faster than customer expectations evolve. This leadership roundtable explores how senior leaders can build the infrastructure needed to support continuous innovation—from legacy modernization and cloud transformation to enterprise AI and emerging on-chain capabilities. Participants will discuss how to balance resilience with speed, align technology investments with business outcomes, and create an architecture that enables the bank to adapt, scale, and compete in a digital-first future.

In today’s banking environment—defined by rapid regulatory change, AI-enabled operating models, and accelerating digital and on-chain finance—executive presence has become a performance differentiator. It is no longer about visibility, but about the ability to shape decisions, translate complexity into enterprise impact, and create confidence in high-stakes moments.

This panel explores how leaders can accelerate their influence by framing ideas in terms of financial and enterprise outcomes, communicating with precision under pressure, and controlling the narrative in critical executive and regulatory discussions. Panelists will share how they built credibility before reaching senior titles by consistently connecting execution to strategy, leading through ambiguity, and earning trust across risk, technology, and business leadership.

Gain a practical understanding of how executive presence directly drives career acceleration, decision authority, and enterprise impact—and what it takes to operate as a strategic voice in the moments that matter most in modern financial institutions.
