About Joan Mcgovern

I didn't realize my day job was my life's purpose in disguise.With a successful career in audit, risk management and compliance, I gained extensive knowledge and experience of the firm's operations.However, it was the opportunity to create a new business unit and change how business was being conducted for people with disabilities that changed my career outlook forever. Creating a corporate business unit over a five year period resulted in significantly enhancing products, services, technology and behavior across the organization for this segment of the population.My entrepreneurial spirit was tapped and there was no looking back.When the corporate focus expanded to specifically support military initiatives, the skills I possessed made me attractive to this new business unit. I was offered and eagerly accepted the position to collaboratively redefine the tech curriculum at universities, in order that Military/Veterans could receive industry recognized certifications and land jobs, all without using their GI bill.I am known for being creatively inquisitive and once I began supporting underrepresented constituents, I realized I had a "calling" and not just a career.The economic downturn in 2008 motivated me to realize another dimension to life, wherein I became a certified Spiritual Director, companioning others in defining the discernment of their life's calling.That realization lead me to accept my current position wherein I can promote an understanding of Church teachings through prayer, education, and outreach to the faithful and those interested in deepening their relationship with the Divine.

    Three decades of an amazing journey in the financial services industry provided the experiences necessary to awaken my spirit to my life's calling...attending to the spiritual needs of others.Dynamically promoting the Center's mission of deepening the faith of the people of our times allows me to extend my collaborative communication skills with external organizations; cultivating relationships. Those initiatives result in identifying donors eager to support the mission of the Cenacle. . Being a spiritual companion through the ministry of Spiritual Direction, enables me to participate in Ministry meetings and Retreats which provide the opportunity to develop program content to offer individual retreatants as well as create material for hosted group retreats. As a Spiritual Director I meet individually with spiritual seekers interested in attaining a deeper relationship with their God/Divine Creator. Listening with a contemplative heart to the needs of community members ensures programs being created meet their spiritual needs. At the same time the public's awareness of the Center is kept visible and relevant.

    Having successfully established a diversity business initiative focusing on people with disabilities, I was tapped to lead a high profile corporate-wide initiative serving the Military/Veteran population. Calling upon the skills acquired throughout my career enabled me to initiate and manage 21 projects with university partners to attract Military/Veteran personnel into STEM curriculum and ultimately computer science careers. Drawing on extensive relationship/networking skills, I established a Military/Veteran student talent pipeline, supported by Corporate Human Resources. The creation of an enhanced recruiting infrastructure and an "Inform, Enroll, Recruit" scorecard streamlined the hiring process and successfully attracted this segment of the population.The ability to influence how business is conducted with underrepresented populations motivated me to reflect on my personal talents, leading me to pursue a certification in Spiritual Direction. The additional skills enhanced my capabilities to mentor and guide many individuals pursuing their life's desires, previously thought unattainable.

    Jpmorgan Chase & Co. May 2004 - Jun 2009
    Nyc, Ny
    After conducting a global research initiative of how people with disabilities interact with financial products and services, I made a presentation to the CEO. This resulted in the approval of a five year plan to enhance policies and procedures so that products and services would be more accessible to people with disabilities.I created a business model that transformed how business was conducted with this segment of the population. Alliances with organizations that specialized in the requirements of specific disability needs provided an efficient means to apply product and service enhancements. These alliances resulted in achievements in call center operations for clients who were hard of hearing and with "talking ATMs" for consumers with visual impairments, thus demonstrating the continued commitment for this constituency.

    Learning how to conduct an audit or operational risk review was easy. Developing the skill to obtain a detailed understanding of operational processes required gaining the trust of those employees at all levels of the firm. Gaining that trust propelled my credibility as a collaborative, results oriented colleague. I was able to identify gaps promptly and apply effective solutions, leading to shareholder satisfaction.
