Carol serves on the Leadership Committee for BNY Mellon’s Women’s Initiative network (WIN), the largest and longest running ERG with over 4,000 internal members. Under her leadership, BNY identified a gap in information on women in management, and co-sponsored the “Women in Management” research. Furthermore, she supported the implementation of internal focus groups following Business in the Community’s Project 28-40 report. The report alongside the focus groups, ultimately led to an internal media campaign featuring a video of BNY’s Chairman dispelling myths around agile working. Carol also began the company’s Ireland Corporate Social Responsibility programme and continues to support local efforts. Externally, she is one of the co-founders of the 30% Club in Ireland and currently the country lead for the Ireland chapter. In this role, she was part of the 30% Club 4th Annual Chair and CEO conference, showcasing research on gender diversity in the financial services and the importance of engaging men. Carol is also in the process of completing the final stages of her Master’s degree at the University of Cork (IMI). As a senior female business leader, she has entered academia again to develop the skillset needed to interface with diverse people and inspire their success.
