Power 5 Interview - Francine Mbvoumbo (she/her)

Updated: May 17, 2023



We are pleased to introduce you to Francine Mbvoumbo (she/her) who is one of our WIL Community Partners.


What are you most passionate about?

Bridging generational gaps among women is a lifelong passion of mine. I aspire to see a world where younger women gravitate towards more experienced and older women in personal, professional, and business spaces without reservations.


Who is your greatest role model?

It may sound cliché, but I would not be the person I am today without my mother's emotional, spiritual, physical, and financial investment in me. She is the backbone of my entire being and the legacy I hope to pass on someday to my own progeny.


What is your greatest accomplishment in your career trajectory?

Let myself get molded by more experienced women and use the acquired knowledge to pave the way for other women. In my 7+ years career in Finance, I am humbled and proud to be contributing to making a better world for women.


What advice would you give to new or emerging leaders who are building their careers?

Be comfortable with the uncomfortable – whether it be career or business-related. Embracing this concept will help you stretch yourself and discover the bravery within you.


What do you think is the biggest challenge for the next generation?

Access. It is a controversial one because, on one end, it is a necessary thing to have, but at the same token, it can be the root cause of mental health and body positivity issues, to name a few. We can attest to some of these consequences now. The future will only amplify the spread.
