In a fireside chat, Donna Rapaccioli, dean of the Gabelli School of Business, will interview Mandell Crawley, GABELLI ’09, about his long career in the C-suite, global marketing, global finance, and the impact of diversity, equity, and inclusion on Morgan Stanley (MS).

About the Speaker
Crawley has had a 30-year career with MS, during which he has served as the chief marketing officer and head of private wealth management, and he is now the global head of human resources. As the head of the firm’s private wealth management business, a division that exclusively focuses on ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, and their foundations, Crawley oversaw international wealth management, which caters to non-U.S. resident clients; family office resources, which offers an expansive suite of highly specialized services to address the complexities of managing affluent wealth; global sports and entertainment; and institutional client coverage.

As chief marketing officer, he had overall responsibility for defining, creating, and delivering Morgan Stanley’s marketing strategy. Mandell also served as head of national business development and talent management for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, where he led an organization responsible for driving growth across the firm’s industry-leading platform and improving the proficiency of financial advisors, sales support, and branch leadership talent.

Earlier in his career, Crawley served as head of U.S. fixed income sales and distribution for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management’s Capital Markets Group. In total, he spent 14 of his 28 years working within capital markets in various producing and managerial capacities.
