HALB presents Mandy DeFilippo ‘00, Global Head of Risk Management at Morgan Stanley

As part of the Harvard Association for Law and Business’ “Dream Big” series, Mandy DeFilippo ‘00 joined Genevieve Antono ’21 for an engaging and inspiring fireside chat to discuss her career path, as well as her top tips on leadership and success for early-career professionals.

DeFilippo is a Managing Director and Global Head of Risk Management for Fixed Income & Commodities at Morgan Stanley. She is also the Chair of the International Capital Markets Association, and has been recognized by Financial News as one of the Top 100 Most Influential Women in European Finance. Before joining Morgan Stanley, she was a US corporate and securities lawyer at Allen & Overy LLP in London.

She is currently a visiting professor at Harvard Law School, where she teaches a class on “Leading from the Middle.” Earlier this year DeFilippo was named the Steven and Maureen Klinsky Professor of Practice for Leadership and Progress, a professorship endowed in 2013 by Steven Klinsky J.D. ’81 M.B.A. ’79, and his wife, Maureen Klinsky, designed to bring visiting leaders from a wide range of fields beyond law to campus to teach and bring inspiration and broad perspective to Harvard Law School and, more generally, to Harvard University.

The event was hosted by the Harvard Association for Law and Business (HALB) as part of its Dream Big Speaker Series. Follow HALB on Instagram and Facebook to stay up-to-date on future events.
