Lincoln Financial Group’s Elena L. French Receives 2021 “Women Worth Watching” Recognition from Profiles in Diversity Journal

Senior Vice President of Corporate Marketing, Communications and Brand Named to List for Excellence in Leadership

Lincoln Financial Group (NYSE: LNC) announced today that Elena L. French, senior vice president, corporate marketing, communications and brand, has been recognized by Profiles in Diversity Journal on its 2021 “Women Worth Watching” list.

This prestigious award is given annually to women who exemplify leadership, achievement and innovation. French was recognized for her visionary leadership, particularly throughout the pandemic — she strategically led the Corporate Communications team as they adapted to new ways of working, while increasing communications, promoting leadership visibility and fostering employee engagement through an exceptionally challenging time. This work also contributed to her recent promotion to Senior Vice President and Head of Corporate Marketing, Communications, and Brand.

“Elena is a strategic and inspirational leader, focused on building collaborative, high-performing teams, and I’m so glad to see her leadership — particularly her leadership of the Corporate Communications team during the pandemic — recognized with this award,” said Jamie Ohl, president, workplace solutions, head of operations and brand at Lincoln Financial Group. “Elena helped Lincoln remain resilient and responsive to our employees, customers and partners, and this recognition is a testament to the leadership that she brings to our team, each and every day.”

French has more than 20 years of experience leading the development and implementation of successful brand- and business-driven strategic marketing and communication programs within the financial services, health care and telecommunications industries. At Lincoln Financial, she leads the company’s corporate advertising, brand, consumer insights, communications, social media and sponsorships initiatives. She is a graduate of The George Washington University and holds a B.A. in Political Communications and Journalism.

Profiles in Diversity Journal’s 2021 Summer Issue celebrates the achievements and personalities of 104 women nominated by their colleagues, peers and mentors. These women join more than 2,000 previous award recipients as outstanding examples of leaders who demonstrate talent, courage, persistence, commitment and generosity of spirit. This is the ninth time in the past nine years that a Lincoln Financial executive has been recognized by Profiles in Diversity Journal in various forms.

Lincoln Financial’s commitment to its employees is further evidenced by a perfect score on the 2021 CEI “Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality” and a perfect score on the 2021 Disability Equality Index®.
