GS5: Invisible to Influential: How Finance Professionals Build Visibility That Drives Opportunity
Kari Saylor

You do excellent work. But if no one sees it, it’s much harder for it to create opportunity.
In accounting and finance, high-performing women are often taught to keep their heads down, deliver results, and let their work speak for itself. And many do — exceptionally well. But in today’s environment, competence alone isn’t enough to drive advancement, access, and influence.
Visibility does.
The challenge is that many of the visibility barriers women face are real: not wanting to seem boastful, feeling uncomfortable with self-promotion, or simply not knowing how to show up in a way that feels both professional and authentic. This session is designed to meet you exactly where you are.
In this session, Kari Saylor, CPA, shares a practical approach to building strategic visibility — both online and in person — that feels aligned with who you are, not who you’re not.
You’ll learn:
• Why visibility (not just performance) drives career growth, new clients, and expanded influence
• How to position yourself clearly on LinkedIn so the right opportunities find you
• How to show up in rooms — and on screens — so the right people remember you
• How to align your online and in-person presence to consistently reinforce your expertise
This session is designed for professionals who are ready to be recognized for the work they’re already doing, expand their influence, and create more intentional career opportunities — without becoming someone they’re not.
