In this episode…
As the financial services industry prepares for a significant generational transfer of wealth and the impending retirement of many advisors, a critical challenge emerges — there are not enough diverse and qualified professionals to meet the growing demand. Despite women increasingly becoming primary financial decision-makers, they remain underrepresented in advisory roles. So, what will it take to create a more inclusive, future-ready financial workforce?
Lindsey Lewis, an expert in financial education and advocacy, addresses this gap by spotlighting the opportunities and systemic challenges facing women in finance. She shares actionable strategies to attract and retain female advisors, such as providing access to education, mentorship, and professional designations that enhance confidence and long-term success. Lindsey emphasizes the need for firms to modernize outdated business models while encouraging financial professionals to create personalized, inclusive client experiences grounded in trust and empathy.
In this episode of the Advisor Today podcast, co-hosts Chris Gandy and Bianca Alonso Weiss sit down with Lindsey Lewis, a Chartered Financial Consultant and Certified Financial Planner, to discuss empowering women in finance and reshaping the industry. Lindsey discusses how education drives advisor success, why diversity boosts profitability, and how to support underrepresented groups in financial careers.
