WLA Ambassadors Make an Impact

Many hands make light work! As champions for women in the financial advising profession, WLA Ambassadors are
members of a community who come together with two primary goals:

1. Educate women about the empowering financial advising career path.

2. Support and advance more women currently working as financial advising professionals.

If you are passionate about changing the conversation pushing boundaries, and effecting change and would like to be a part of a community that promotes empowerment for women in the financial advising profession, we invite you to join us. Together, we can make a lasting impact and pave the way for a more inclusive and equitable financial advising industry.

As a non-profit organization, our efforts are firm-agnostic and our collective impact reaches firms, communities, and campuses across the country. Ambassadors make a difference because of the active role and commitment advocating for positive change within the profession in a variety of ways:

  • Sharing the WLA mission and resources online
  • Referring new members 
  • Speaking to students 
  • Mentoring emerging talent, or participating in community panels and events. 

 

You can also contribute by hosting virtual membership events, supporting our mentorship program, or helping connect WLA with potential sponsors. However you choose to engage, your support helps grow a stronger, more inclusive future for women in finance.
