Inclusion on the list recognizes our ongoing commitment to fostering a culture where all individuals are empowered to lead. At WisdomTree, we believe that inclusion is not a one-time initiative, but a continuous journey, and I’m proud to be part of a team that embraces this mission every day.”
All three honorees are active leaders of WisdomTree’s global Women’s Initiative Network (WIN), an employee-led program focused on promoting gender equity through mentorship, professional development and leadership opportunities. WIN supports all genders within the organization and connects members with firm leaders to advance career growth and build a more inclusive workplace.
