Women’s Initiative

While having a diverse and inclusive workforce has always been a priority for the firm, CAPTRUST’s diversity efforts formally took shape in 2017 when our CEO, Fielding Miller, recognized the importance of lifting up women in the industry and increasing the number of women advisors at CAPTRUST. He charged the women of CAPTRUST and the entire company to focus on adding more diversity to our advisory force by increasing the number of women advisors. This initiative also included working to ensure every woman’s success at CAPTRUST.

Today, women advisors make up 27 percent of our total advisor workforce. This percentage is well above the industry standard.

The CAPTRUST Women’s Initiative seeks to create a more diverse community of advisors focused on mentoring, encouraging, and collaborating, in an effort to recruit, retain, and lift up female advisors.

This summer, the CAPTRUST Women’s Advisor Initiative held the second annual Women’s Leadership Forum. The virtual event was open to colleagues from across the firm and featured inspiring stories from women around the firm, as well as discussions with executive coaches and authors. More than 150 CAPTRUST employees from around the country tuned in for the event.
