Merrill Lynch, a member of the FWA President’s Circle of corporate supporters, hosted a luncheon meeting November 15 at the firm’s global headquarters at the World Financial Center. Over 200 Merrill Lynch attendees heard insights from Merrill Lynch FWA leaders, such as: Marlene Debel, co-chair Diversity; Rehana Farrell, co-chair Executive Leaders; and Daisy Platt, co-chair Emerging Leaders. FWA leader Bridget Pantaleo described her experience with the New Jersey arm of the FWA. Westina Matthews Shatteen moderated the panel of FWA members.
FWA President Lily Klebanoff Blake led the non-ML FWA contingent, including Lynthia Romney, co-chair President’s Circle, Liz Farrar, co-chair Membership, Barbara Albom, co-chair Microfinance, Wendy Leibowitz, co-chair Mentoring, and Karen Rockey, co-chair Annual Dinner. MaryBeth Henry came in from Philadelphia to join her Merrill Lynch colleagues and fellow FWA members.
Much appreciation goes to ML Director Ryan McDay, head of Corporate & Enterprise Diversity & Inclusion; ML Vice President Jackie Grace and their colleagues for developing this exceptional experience.
Merrill Lynch and the FWA are planning a similar event at Merrill Lynch in Hopewell Junction NJ, date to be announced.
