INvolve’s ‘Heroes Role Model Lists supported by YouTube’ champion women executives, women future leaders and advocates for women in business. The individuals featured in these Role Model Lists represent the most impactful and innovative work being done for women’s inclusion across the globe and provide a benchmark from which global progress can be achieved.

On being named to the Heroes Executives Role Model List, Frankenthaler said, “I am honored to be recognized on this year’s Heroes List and proud of my colleagues included alongside me. Inclusion on this list is a testament to the strength and commitment of the WisdomTree team in supporting and empowering women across all levels of the firm and to fostering an inclusive work environment. We are excited to continue this work in the years to come.

WisdomTree leaders named on these lists are also members of the firm’s global Women’s Initiative Network (WIN). WIN is an employee-led network designed to provide opportunities and support for all genders at WisdomTree, including career development and professional training opportunities, female empowerment and leadership within the organization. In addition, through WIN’s mentorship program, WIN members of all genders are connected with firm leaders to help them achieve their career development goals. WisdomTree’s four leaders recognized include:

The Heroes Executives Role Model List

Marci Frankenthaler, Chief Legal Officer, is the first woman to serve on WisdomTree’s executive committee. In 2019, she founded and was the first chair of WIN. As WIN’s executive sponsor, she leads its members, hosts roundtables and participates in mentorship programs. Marci also helped establish WisdomTree’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Council, promoting equitable recruiting, feedback, and promotion processes and supporting awareness events like International Women's Day and Pay Equity Day.

The Heroes Future Leaders Role Model List

Maredith Hannon, Head of Business Development, Digital Assets, has played a pivotal role in WIN’s successful mentorship program. As a former mentee and now a mentor, Maredith leads WIN’s Mentorship Committee, conducting interviews and facilitating the pairings based on professional objectives. Since the start of the program in 2022, approximately 25% of mentees have been promoted. Maredith is an active Digital Assets and Crypto community member who supports and actively recruits women into the space.

Lauren Pfendt, Senior Analyst, Portfolio Solutions, has been actively involved in WIN since joining the company in 2022. In 2023, she led the WIN Roundtable Committee, facilitating meaningful discussions on a variety of topics including Women in Sports, Closing the Wealth and Investing Gap and Bridging Generational Gaps in the Workplace. Recently, Lauren was named the Deputy Co-Chair of WIN US, where she co-leads monthly meetings, manages subcommittee initiatives and oversees the broad management of WIN US.

The Heroes Advocates Role Model List

Stu Bell, Chief Operating Officer of WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc., is an active member of WIN and WisdomTree’s Global Sustainability Committee, contributing to the company's commitment to equity and sustainability. Stu led the global articulation of WisdomTree's Mission, Vision and Values, ensuring transparency, integrity and respect within the organization, and he actively supports the professional development of women leaders across the firm.

Founder & CEO of INvolve, Suki Sandhu OBE, said, “I’m so thrilled to be celebrating this fantastic global cohort of trailblazing Executives, Future Leaders and Advocates driving change for women in business. All the individuals within our 2024 Heroes Role Model Lists supported by YouTube are championing inclusion and leveraging their expertise and knowledge to drive impactful initiatives and strategic change within their organizations. It’s vital that women across global organizations can succeed and achieve career success, and these Role Models are essential drivers of change who are smashing barriers to progress. We could not effect change without them leading the way, and my huge thanks to each and every one of them for their much-needed work for women’s inclusion.”
