The Bridgestone Women's Initiative Network, or BWIN for short, was created in 2016 as the company's first Employee Resource Group (ERG).

On the Season 1 finale of WIBcast - Diana Angelini solidifies what being a WIB is all about. Diana works on Wealth Technology Adoption at BlackRock and she explains what fintech is and why she loves it. She remembers her Computers and Management class at BC and talks about feeling so excited about integrating technology and business. Diana had a larger than life experience outside of her schoolwork. She was a retreat leader for Karios, played waterpolo, and studied abroad the fall of her senior year in Italy. She addresses the concern of getting internship opportunities for the summer after junior year abroad, but Diana was able to secure several offers. She talks about friction to chose between an internship at JP Morgan and Saks Fifth Avenue. She eventually accepted the offer at JPM, but talks about how she felt internal pressure to do so because of JPM's reputation, when she was more passionate about fashion. We talk about the pressure to work for prestigious companies as a whole. We recognize that students want to make expensive education's worth the investment and that there is also a group mentality mindset to take the prestigious route. All that said, Diana's JP Morgan internship was an incredibly positive experience. She talks about how, for the first time, she saw the manifestation of the corporate woman she wanted to become. Eager to follow in the footsteps of the senior women of JPM, Diana launched the JP Morgan Women's Networking Luncheon as an intern. The event still exists today. Her passion for fostering female empowerment and mentorship has stuck with her. Now at BlackRock, she contributes to BlackRock's Women's Initiative Network. Diana brings an unmatched energy and femininity to WIBcast. We also talk about finding a distinction between your career and your personal life. You will understand the aggressive networking it takes to get a top position at a young and you will laugh at the story of how she met the head of fashion of L magazine. This is the final episode of WIBcast Season 1. It has been such a pleasure to speak with all of these women and I am excited to bring more stories in Season 2. Make sure to follow WIBcast on Instagram @wibcast!

There is a gap between older and younger generations. In our world, this plays itself a lot through whining, complaining and throwing stones at each other. As young men, we have allowed all the negativity that people throw at us often get to us in ways we shouldn’t. It’s time for a better frame of mind. There is a better way to reach out to those who are older, wiser and more connected than you that can help you grow exponentially. CLOSING THE GENERATIONAL GAP My guest on today’s show knows all about the power in choosing to allow yourself to be invested by those older than you. Grant Skeldon is an author and founder of The Initiative Network which is an organization that equips young people to be missionaries in the workplace. Grant also intentionally reaches out to those older than him to get the wisdom he needs to live this life. You’ll love today’s show.
