In this episode of the 2B Bolder Podcast, I sit down with Kathryn Kaminsky, a 31-year veteran of PwC and the current Chief Commercial Officer. Kathryn’s passion for serving clients has driven her impressive career, which spans business transformation, complex accounting, regulatory matters, and tech-led innovation. As a trusted advisor, she has led engagement teams to help clients navigate financial reporting and transformation challenges.
Throughout the episode, Kathryn shares insights from her leadership journey, including her role in PwC’s Trust Solutions division, where she integrated Audit, ESG, Digital Assurance, and Tax Reporting to help clients build stakeholder trust. She discusses pivotal moments that shaped her career and offers invaluable advice for women seeking leadership roles in male-dominated industries.
We dive into the pivotal moments that influenced her decision to pursue a career in accounting and how she navigated her way to becoming Chief Commercial Officer. Kathryn also provides insights on what it means to be a woman in leadership in male-dominated industries and shares advice for women looking to follow in her footsteps.

- "What challenges have you faced as a leader in male-dominated industries, and what strategies can you offer to women trying to navigate similar spaces?"
- "What are the most demanded role opportunities for women and the skills needed?"
Kathryn also reflects on how she has embraced networking, the importance of building a support system, and how being “bolder” has influenced her career. She offers actionable advice on staying on top of technological trends and why innovation is key for business success.
