Episode 30 with Joanne Jensen
This is a classic tale of, How the heck did she do that? From working-class roots to Managing Director and Private Banker at Deutsche Bank Wealth Management, Joanne Jensen is a star in the financial world. Joanne managed WFH and flex hours long before they were commonplace and in a field where they were virtually unheard of. Joanne shares with TBD the importance of knowing your own finances, especially in times of transition. Hear how/why she stayed in the workforce, even when things were hard, why wealth management is a good career for women (no, really), and how to put yourself first and negotiate for more money. A little hint - know your facts and your value.
College was a life-altering experience for Joanne and she is committed to helping disadvantaged students get to and through college, with the mentoring organization Let's Get Ready.
