Early on, it was very clear to me that I would venture into the finance industry. I am a very focused individual who felt sure of my direction which led to a career in banking and financial services. My parents are retired social workers who instilled a sense of giving back – volunteering has been a constant in my life. Activities with my church and nonprofits have always been of great importance. As Executive Director of Morgan Stanley Private Bank NA, my daily responsibilities embrace a consultative nature (Regional Sales Director,) with private bankers and financial advisors around deposit and lending solutions. • Coach and mentor private bankers• Oversee and inspect sales processes• Source talent and contribute to promotions and evaluations• Diversity and Inclusion steering committeesAs business has evolved and the workplace has changed, I feel it is of utmost importance for companies to pay attention to D&I and fill the voids that exist among emerging leaders. Education is key – and needed – to ensure opportunities for learning and I am passionate about contributing to that goal. My enthusiasm is strong to assist efforts to bringing capital to underserved communities. Empowering a wider variety of voices in the workplace and our communities is energizing for me. My calling is strong to assist efforts that aid toward seeing the unseen.Notable Achievements include• Maker@MorganStanley• Morgan Stanley US Banks Giving Back Sales Award• Cornell University Diversity and Inclusion Certificate• McKinsey and Company courses: Business Fundamentals, Problem Solving, Business Strategies• #IamRemarkable FacilitatorCurrently, I serve on two boards: • Community Capital of New York – Secretary and Loan Committee Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI)• Estate Planning Council of Westchester County Inc. - TreasurerContact me at yvettewynnyvette@gmail.com Aside from work, I enjoy being an active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Inc.
