Things Nobody Told Women in Finance about Self-Advocacy

Hosts Casey Nelson and Kelly Wray invite three guests for their insights about how women in finance and law can advocate for themselves. Linda Filardi of Flagstar Bank, Jess Yovich at BMO Commercial Bank, and McGuireWoods’ colleague Gretchen Townshend recall their own journeys to guide others. Among their suggested strategies: documenting accomplishments throughout the year, cultivating mentors, and getting the data that shows why people were promoted. They also remind women not to fall into the trap of thinking that self-advocacy is “bragging.”Connect and Learn More☑️ Linda Filardi | LinkedIn☑️ Flagstar Bank | LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | X☑️ Jess Yovich | LinkedIn☑️ BMO Commercial Bank | LinkedIn | Facebook | YouTube | X☑️ Gretchen Townshend | LinkedIn☑️ Casey Nelson | LinkedIn☑️ Kelly Wray | LinkedIn☑️ McGuireWoods | LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | X☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon MusicThis podcast was recorded and is being made available by McGuireWoods for informational purposes only.
