“We have a women’s network [at JPMorgan Chase] that is helpful. But I do think you have to supplement that with being inclusive of the guys. When you’re having a conversation about diversity and the goals that you have, it has to be very inclusive. You can’t have women go off in a room on their own and figure out how to solve everything.”

How to do better: “Women need sponsors and advocates, something that has worked well for us here. Talented people and more diverse individuals, not only women, need more advocates and sponsors who are willing to say, ‘I know this person can do the job. We’re going to take a chance here.’”
