Meet Ella Petreski, a Consultant in our Cybersecurity practice, and the next women in our Women’s History Month spotlight series. 👇 What does Women’s History Month mean to you? Ella: Women’s History Month serves as a reminder for me to appreciate what women have achieved throughout history and to keep striving for the goals they worked so hard towards. What is your greatest personal or professional accomplishment? Ella: My greatest professional accomplishment has been my work on a complex investigation with national security implications over the course of the last year. It’s the first project I was placed on after joining FTI Consulting as a full-time employee, and it continues to be one of my favorite engagements to work on. I had the opportunity to lead a team on one of the investigative workstreams and have remained on the core investigative team as workstreams have ended. Most recently, I conducted a forensic review of evidence and located information that became key to moving the investigation to its more final stages. Who is the most influential woman you know (or would like to know) and why? Ella: The most influential woman I would like to know is Simone Biles. As the most decorated gymnast in history, she has pushed others to compete at her level, elevating her sport as a whole. Having the ability to not only push yourself to your best, but to also bring out the best of those around you, is a goal I think everyone should strive for, whether it be on the international stage or in your local office. What are you passionate about outside of work? Ella: I am very passionate about music and the arts in general. I make sure I have time to take part in the hobbies I love, such as playing piano, drawing and going to concerts. I am a very big concert-goer and have met many friends over the years through attending concerts. Twenty One Pilots has been my favorite band since 2014, and I’ve followed them around the East Coast on their most recent tour. This year I will have the opportunity to attend my first international concerts in Dublin, Manchester and London! #WomensHistoryMonth #TeamFTI

Companies are least prepared for the crises that pose the greatest threats, according to a recent FTI Consulting-sponsored Economist Impact survey. Lars Faeste and David Dunn highlight these threats and urge GCs, their organizations, their law firms and other expert advisors to play a more active role in crisis management.

A decade ago, Senior Managing Director Robrecht Vandormael took a leap of faith by joining a firm that was still finding its footing in Brussels. Learn more about Robrecht’s journey with #TeamFTI: What initially drew you to FTI Consulting, and what has kept you here? Robrecht: Back in 2015, FTI Consulting was the new kid on the block in Brussels. It did not yet have a strong brand – but a big ambition to disrupt and become the market leader. That ambition – and the people behind it – drew me to the job. Still today, I am fortunate to be working alongside several people who I have worked with since my first day at the firm, both colleagues and clients. What is the biggest trend you are seeing in the payments industry? Robrecht: You can’t speak about a trend today without mentioning AI – and that’s no different for the payments sector. In particular, the importance of security, cyber and fraud management, embedded and connected solutions, optimization of the payments experience, etc. – all things that AI can play a huge role in. Beyond AI, I think we will continue to see further diversification of the payments landscape, with new and alternative ways of paying (often real-time), more and different devices (including connected devices), and more disruption due to (geo)politics and regulation. What is the best advice you’ve ever received? Robrecht: Make sure your timesheets are done on Friday. How do you unwind after a long day? Robrecht: In an ideal world, I love to go for a run after a long day of work. There is nothing more relaxing, better to clear my head and to put things into perspective than a run. In reality, however, my second job gets in the way of that run, and that is being a father of three. So my evenings are often occupied with taking care of my three daughters. That said, they always succeed in making me disconnect from work!

Congratulations to corporate reputation expert Elly DiLeonardi on 10 years with #TeamFTI! Read on to discover her favorite part about working at the firm, career advice and more. What is your favorite part about working at FTI Consulting? Elly: Without a doubt, it is the team. I get to work with and learn from incredibly smart people who are true experts in their respective fields, and they have made me a better practitioner over the last 10 years. What is your biggest tip for companies when it comes to corporate reputation? Elly: As someone who primarily consults B2B companies, it often takes a crisis or adverse event for leadership teams to prioritize reputation management. It’s a long game. A carefully crafted and targeted corporate reputation strategy not only mitigates risk but drives significant value for the business. What is one lesson you’ve learned during your career? Elly: Never underestimate the power of a live conversation instead of an email. How do you spend your time outside of work? Elly: I have 1.5-year-old twin daughters, so a lot of my time outside of work is spent with my family. I also love to travel and explore new places – although these days it is closer to home!

As a recent graduate, Brisbane-based Emma Toms feels fortunate to have great mentors at FTI Consulting. In this spotlight, she shares her perspective on Women’s History Month, her experience with #TeamFTI and more. What does Women’s History Month mean to you? Emma: At the end of 2024, I finished my bachelor's degree in politics, philosophy and economics, and it was evident that until relatively recently, the contributions of women to these fields were often unheard and undervalued. My hope is that Women's History Month serves as a time to celebrate these contributions and recognize the resilience of women in their uphill fight to be acknowledged as academically equal to their peers. Who is the most influential woman you know (or would like to know) and why? Emma: At the moment, the most influential women in the field of economics are Danielle Wood and Michelle Bullock. As the Chair of the Productivity Commission and Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, respectively, they are highly influential female role models who are at the forefront of economic policy and analysis. I really value seeing the pathway to their current positions and their encouragement of female economists, which I think is particularly important within a male-dominated field. What is one lesson you’ve had to learn the hard way? Emma: Since I have just started working full-time, I'm learning a lot! Over the past two years of being an intern, I found myself occasionally overcommitting to too many projects (I never like saying no to an opportunity to work on something interesting). I definitely have learned how to have conversations to get clear expectations on my time and involvement. Why has FTI Consulting been a good place for you to start your career? Emma: I am very lucky to be part of a great team, all of whom have been extremely supportive of me in balancing my work and study commitments over the past two years. Robert Southern, John Dowell and Jeff Lassen have given me so many opportunities to learn about all aspects of economic and financial consulting, for which I am really grateful. I am also really lucky to have some great female mentors, including Sarah Cornell-Farrow and Lauren Retief, who have provided me with a lot of guidance. #WomensHistoryMonth
