One of the biggest complaints about human resources and employers is the cold and impersonal manner in which they lay off workers. How a company communicates and facilitates job cuts is essential for demonstrating empathy and providing immediate support to employees during a difficult and emotional time, as well as maintaining trust with its remaining staff and anyone looking to join the organization in the future. In this LinkedIn Live, Valerie Vadala, an experienced global talent acquisition leader who served in executive roles at Wells Fargo, Shutterstock, Invesco, OppenheimerFunds, Credit Suisse and Lehman Brothers, will be giving her take on this insensitive layoff trend. We'll be discussing the viral Cloudflare firing video and how companies could conduct themselves better during these layoffs!

Finance leader Betsy Ward wants you to know that she doesn't have an itchy trigger finger—but she does have an inner trigger and knows when it's been set off. There's no doubt that few professional colleagues would ever think to associate the time-tested gunslinger trope with the exponentially mild-mannered Ward, who has led insurance giant MassMutual through a string of strategic transactions since her arrival in its CFO office in 2016. Still, as Ward seeks to help us to better understand the unique mix of skills that distinguishes her from her CFO peers, her words alert us to a confidence that comes from experience not found on a more traditional corporate finance resume. “I have a trigger that lets me know when I need to look into something and ask myself ‘Do we keep that? Do I need to manage it? Do I need to sell?,'” explains Ward, who spent 10 years in asset management before joining MassMutual in 2007 as chief risk officer. “I've always looked at outcomes—baseline outcomes, which in finance we typically call ‘the plan'—but I've always considered scenarios, too,” comments Ward, whose list of recent transactions includes the acquisition of Great American Life Insurance Company (now MassMutual Ascend) and the combination of OppenheimerFunds with Invesco in 2019. Ward's team uses a variety of metrics to bring different scenarios into sharper focus. “We asked ourselves what it would take to make our retirement business not only perform well but also be more scalable, and here's where our productivity metrics really came into play,” recalls Ward, highlighting MassMutual's headline-grabbing decision to sell its retirement business to Empower in 2020. According to MassMutual's CFO, finance provides her organization not so much with advice as with a “thesis” for guiding business decision-making. Says Ward: “I think that what my background brings to the financial side is this scenario type of analysis, as well as the notion of having a thesis for businesses, for assets, and for products.” –Jack Sweeney

Welcome to Reimagining Company Culture, a series discussing emerging trends and priorities shaping the future of workplace culture and employee wellbeing. We highlight thought leaders who are constantly evolving their strategy and can provide insight to folks about how to address new business challenges. AllVoices is on a mission to create safe, happy, and healthy workplaces for all, and we're excited to learn from experts who share our mission.In this episode of Reimagining Company Culture, we're chatting with Crina Pupaza, Chief People Officer at Nymbus. Prior to Nymbus, Crina held leadership roles in various disciplines within HR and Internal Communications at both established organizations and start-ups, including Insider Intelligence, OppenheimerFunds, the Guggenheim Museum and SoftNgin. About AllVoicesIn today's workforce, people often don't feel empowered to speak up and voice their opinions about workplace issues, including harassment, bias, and other culture issues. This prevents company leadership from making necessary changes, and prevents people from feeling fulfilled, recognized, and included at work. At AllVoices, we want to change that by providing a completely safe, anonymous way for people to report issues directly to company leaders. This allows company leadership real transparency into what's happening in their companies—and the motivation to address issues quickly. Our goal is to help create safer, more inclusive companies.To learn more about AllVoices visit us at www.allvoices.co!

Mega-Brands: Investing in Mega Trends & the Mega Brands Best Positioned to Add Value to Your Wallet
In Episode 10, I talk with a serial entrepreneur, Gabriel Hammond of Emles Advisors. We talk about Gabriel's start in the business with the Energy & Power Group at Goldman Sachs and the need to create SteelPath, an investment firm that focused exclusively on energy infrastructure as well as his creation of Alerian, a leading energy infrastructure data and analytics company. Alerian created and launched the first real-time index of master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) in 2005. In 2010, SteelPath launched the first MLP mutual fund and Alerian launched the first MLP exchange traded fund. Mr. Hammond sold SteelPath and its mutual funds family to OppenheimerFunds, Inc. in 2012, but remained a portfolio manager until 2014, and he sold Alerian in 2018. In 2019, Mr. Hammond founded Emles Advisors LLC where he serves as the Chief Executive Officer. Gabriel highlights the virtues of identifying an early new asset class that has enormous return potential and placing a flag early to become the leading brand in the category. We talked about our similar paths in that regard with my creation of the Brands strategy which focuses on an important emerging asset class called "Intangible Assets" via the most relevant brands. We spend some time dissecting the global luxury goods business and the investment opportunity it offers investors through their Luxury Goods ETF, "LUXE". The Emles Luxury Goods ETF (LUXE) invests in a portfolio of global companies that offer luxury goods across accessories, alcohol, apparel, athleisure, beauty, home and vehicles. We also talk about another one of Emles's unique and incredibly timely ETF's, "AMER" the Made in America ETF. The Emles Made in America ETF (AMER) provides investors exposure to companies that potentially stand to benefit from deglobalization and increased manufacturing domestically. An allocation in AMER seeks to provide enhanced return potential through exposure to businesses with headquarters and manufacturing footprints based in the U.S. There's some clear innovation and important uniqueness in the current roster of ETF's at Emles. Lastly, we talked about an Active ETF they will be launching in a month or two and focused on a very underserved, deep value and opportunistic management style. Keep checking back for that new active ETF, I know I will. For more information on all of Emles's investment strategies: https://www.emles.com/

On the first day of interviews from the Morningstar Investment Conference, Chuck covered a wide range of subjects with five different experts, highlighted by Brian Levitt of OppenheimerFunds, who was bullish on the domestic and emerging markets, but realistic about the upcoming election year posing potential problems. Still, he noted that investors should not be swayed by election-related news, as 'Hating the government is not an investment strategy.' Also on the show, Tom Lydon of ETFTrends doing a live variation on his ETF of the Week, Mary Ellen Stanek of Baird Funds, Rich Woodworth of PGIM Investments, and Kristen Mierzwa of FTSERussell.
Chuck celebrates the 7th anniversary of Money Life by talking with a new guest, Leigh Goehring of Goehring and Rozencwajg Associates, who says the commodities market is at the very bottom of the cycle, talking markets with return guest Talley Leger of OppenheimerFunds, who makes a case for investing in emerging markets, and for believing that the Federal Reserve is done raising rates for this year, and with Maura Cassidy of Fidelity Investments discussing the disconnect between how many Americans are confident about their current financial health compared to the number of people who are confident about their retirement future.
Krishna Memani, chief investment officer at OppenheimerFunds, said that the global economy and global growth are softening, but the policy framework is holding strong, allowing the markets to move forward and stay positive for the long-term.

A few months ago I was thrilled when the lovely woman I was chatting with at an industry event introduced herself as Loretta McCarthy managing partner, Golden Seeds. I knew about Golden Seeds, which was the first angel-seed network that exclusively supports women-lead companies, founded 12 years ago in 2005. McCarthy, former executive VP and CMO at Oppenheimer Funds, and VP of Marketing at American Express, knew first-hand how sexist the corporate world was, and saw this play out in startup world. While half of businesses in the United States were started by women, just 17 percent of startups that get funding are led by a woman, and Bloomberg found that just 7 percent of companies that received $20 million or more in funding between 2009 and 2015 were owned by women. Companies founded by women also get an average of $77 million compared with $100 million for male-led startups. The startup paygap is real. Golden Seeds is changing that. In its 12 years, the organization has grown to 300 investors who have invested $96 million in 90 female-led companies. In this interview, Loretta McCarthy explains why this investment gender gap exists, why men are as big of champions as women when it comes to sinking their own investment dollars in female-led organizations, and what you can do to close this investment gap!
