JPMorganChase’s Post

Past Chair and Business Roundtable board member Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co.., shared thoughts how to build a skilled workforce: “I think the more important innovation taking place is what we need to do in high schools, in community college, colleges— getting kids skills… that when they graduate, they’re getting a challenging job. To do that, we need to develop apprenticeship programs, train the teachers, businesses have to work with local schools to make sure what the local companies need is being done.”   Watch the full video here: https://lnkd.in/eDKP98Dp

Last Thursday we got to wrap up our series of Group Mentoring events in 2023 for Women in Banking and Finance - UK with a session for our Early Careers community. We got to discuss many topics that were front of mind for our participants - ranging from managing imposter syndrome, how do we build our own networks, how do we make most of the graduate programmes, how do we manage our career progression, how do we navigate from one specialism to another, and that question… what is my 5 year plan? (Or how do we have a 5 year plan when the world is constantly changing, and even… do we need a 5 year plan?) 🤔 We had so many themes (& people) that we had to break into 3 different groups. Thank you to Urszula Wysocka, PhD MBA, Kris Lynch, Alison Cannon for the discussions! Thank you to HSBC for hosting us, and Mira Ratyal for organising the event! Thank you to Mira, Chloe Hickey-Jones, Poppy Small FIA & Lucy Ellis-Keeler for working with me to make this session a reality! (& bringing the Future Leaders network) Thank you also to Ras Gohil who helped to prep for this session. & a final thank you to Carolina Ottochian, the person who inspired this event in the beginning! If you would like to join our exciting mentoring community- please do! You can find out more https://lnkd.in/eVF-ZvyZ Please also let us know if you have other topics you’d like the group to explore!

"Met Francisco Zepeda during a JPMorgan Chase & Co. Branch Manager training in Columbus, Ohio in December 2022. Today, he made the journey from Indiana to visit Philadelphia. This emphasizes the importance of forging connections whenever possible – you never know when they'll become close to you." • #Networking • #ProfessionalConnections • #BuildingRelationships • #CareerGrowth • #LinkedInConnections • #ConnectingPeople • #BusinessConnections • #NetworkingSuccess • #Opportunities • #CommunityBuilding

"You can't do it alone." It's so true. I've witnessed the crucial impact of a leader who not only understands and believes in their team members' capabilities, but also vocally champions them when they aren't around. I've been this champion for my team members in the past, and I've also been the one who needed a champion. I've had powerful advocates, and I've been burned when that advocacy wasn't as strong as I believed. Regardless of what level of leadership you are in now (or where you will go), make it a point to speak the names of those you believe in. Building others as we rise is truly the most fulfilling and important work we can do. #womeninleadership #advocacy #leadershipdevelopment

🌟 J.P. Morgan Chase provides $500K grant launching new Fair Chance Collaborative led Valley of the Sun United Way in City of Phoenix! One in three U.S. adults—more than 70 million people—have some type of arrest or criminal record. To put this in perspective, about the same number of Americans have college degrees right now. Unfortunately, these Americans, who were incarcerated or have a conviction on their record, are essentially unable to secure good jobs in this country. Nearly half of formerly incarcerated people are unemployed one year after leaving prison. This unique collaborative aims to address the this multi-dimensional challenges faced by these individuals who are now seeking employment and stability in the Phoenix metro with a comprehensive approach—coordinating job training, placement, housing assistance, healthcare access, financial counseling and more—to improve outcomes. As a leader committed to inclusive economic growth opportunity and addressing our community's workforce development challenges, JPMorgan Chase & Co. is proud to support this coalition bringing together social services, education, employers, economic development organizations, and top community leaders. By convening the right leaders and organizations to provide coordinated support, we can eliminate barriers that would otherwise silo efforts and ensure that more people in Phoenix will get a fair chance to rejoin the workforce and fully contribute to their families and the local economy. I'm proud to represent our firm on the VSUW board and to be a part of this vital effort. #FairChance #Reentry #SecondChance #WorkforceDevelopment #JPMorgan #CommunityInvestment #SocialImpact #JPMC #JPMorganChase #Chase #VSUW Carla Melissa Bertha Todd Jennifer Chris Neil Deanna Noreen Keri Kristin Ben Alison Monica Tucker Maura Charlie Ben David Latasha Jenny Drena Chad Elissa Mary Owen Mambu Doran Angela Angela Marie Sara Ann Brian Leia

In every step of my journey, mentors have been the compass that led me to new horizons. Their wisdom, guidance, and unwavering support have been invaluable. Having mentors isn't just a choice; it's a game-changer. They provide insights, share experiences, and help navigate challenges. Grateful for the mentors (some from JP Morgan Chase Bank, y'all are the real MVP's!) who've shaped my path. #MentorshipMatters #Guidance #SuccessJourney
