Kathryn Bishop CBE 

Kathryn Bishop combines teaching at Oxford’s Saïd Business School, with the practical experience of leadership roles in the private, public and voluntary sectors.

She served as the first Chair of the Welsh Revenue Authority, Britain’s newest tax authority, and was awarded a CBE in June 2021 for services to diversity and public administration. She is the Chairman of the Dean Close Foundation and a non-executive on the board of DAC Beachcroft, an international law firm.

She has spent the last decade working to help individuals – both men and women – build successful working lives, and has poured everything she has learnt into her first book, Make Your Own Map: Career Success Strategy for Women. The book focuses on women’s working lives but contains useful insights for everyone. Her second book – on the importance of conversations round the boardroom table – was published in October 2023 and is called “Board Talk: 18 crucial conversations that count inside and outside the boardroom.”

Career Mapping

In a complex and rapidly changing world, a simple career plan won’t serve you as well as a sense of your purpose and a definition of what success means to you, to use as your guiding star.

In this interactive session, Kathryn Bishop will introduce some ideas drawn from research at the Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford about women’s careers, together with some practical frameworks to use in making your own career map. The session will allow plenty of time for questions and discussion, and for you to try out one of the most useful exercises yourself. This will give everyone plenty to discuss during the networking conversations to follow.
