Prudential Financial has appointed Michele Meyer-Shipp as the new vice president and chief diversity officer to oversee all diversity and inclusion initiatives for the company.

Meyer-Shipp joined Prudential in April 2010 as vice president and counsellor in the employment and labor law group and offered legal advice, counsel, training and investigative support to several lines of business.

Before Prudential, she worked as general counsel of the New York Harbor, an Instrumentality of the States of New York and New Jersey and spent four years with Merrill Lynch, managing the diversity and inclusion efforts of the global wealth management business.
