Boston, MA – September 7, 2022 — Nicsa, a leading global asset management trade organization, will be hosting its second annual Fearless Leadership Symposium in Boston on October 6-7, 2022.
The pivotal two-day event will highlight leadership skills and sustainability practices that can enhance productivity and promote long-term growth in the asset management industry. The event will bring together an industry that has quickly come to terms with the “WHY?” of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, and hone in on the “HOW.”
Attendees will hear from industry leaders via powerful keynotes, interactive panel discussions, and succinct “Lightning Talks” aimed at providing insights into how fearless leadership practices support creativity and innovation while enhancing long-term growth.
Featured speakers include Ted Truscott, CEO, Columbia Threadneedle; Lisa Jones, Head of the Americas, President and CEO, Amundi US, Inc.; Carol Geremia, President, MFS Investment Management; Chris Perry, President, Broadridge Financial Solutions; Janell Woodward, President, MacKay Shields; and Byron Pitts, Anchor & Chief National Correspondent at ABC News.
The symposium will also host Nicsa’s Rising Stars Program, spotlighting individuals from member firms who have demonstrated business excellence and made notable contributions toward advancing inclusivity in the global asset management industry. These honorees, who will be announced at a special ceremony the evening of October 6, embody the values of Nicsa’s Diversity Project North America and demonstrate emerging leadership and intentionality for change.
Attendees will include CEOs, senior business executives, and DEI leaders from asset managers, broker-dealers, consulting firms, custodians, executive search firms, fund accounting and audit firms, investment managers, law firms, private equity firms, technology providers, third-party service providers, and technology companies.
