FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CINCINNATI, OH — Rachele Wolf, CPFA™, Senior Vice President and Retirement Plan Advisor at HORAN Wealth, has been named to the 2025 Top Women of Excellence list by the National Association of Plan Advisors (NAPA). This marks the third time Wolf has received the national recognition, which honors women who consistently demonstrate sustained leadership, expertise, and impact in the retirement plan industry.
The award highlights Wolf's long-standing commitment to relationship-driven retirement plan consulting, with a particular focus on helping employers and employees better understand and engage with one of their most meaningful benefits. In a field that was once predominantly male-dominated, Wolf has built a 24-year career centered on education, stewardship, and long-term outcomes.
Beyond individual achievement, this recognition reflects a broader shift in how retirement leadership is defined today. Business owners and leaders are increasingly expected to view retirement plans not simply as benefits, but as strategic tools that support workforce engagement, leadership retention, and long-term business continuity.
Wolf's work emphasizes the importance of employee understanding and education as a central component of retirement plan success. Research consistently shows that retirement benefits play a critical role in employee retention and confidence, yet many plans fall short because participants lack clarity about how they work or how to use them effectively.
"Meeting one-on-one with employees is one of the most meaningful parts of my work," said Wolf. "When people truly understand their retirement plan, they feel more confident, more engaged, and more hopeful about their future. Education empowers people to balance today's needs with tomorrow's goals, and when companies invest in that understanding, it strengthens the entire organization."
Wolf also works closely with business owners and leadership teams to help them design retirement plans that align with their unique business structures and long-term goals. When approached intentionally, retirement plans can support executive strategy, ownership transition, and the ability to build wealth both inside and outside the business.
Just as importantly, Wolf encourages leaders to treat retirement plans as living strategies that require regular review. As businesses evolve and regulations change, plans that once fit well may no longer align with current realities. Annual review and thoughtful oversight help ensure plans remain effective, compliant, and aligned with both employee and business needs.
Wolf is a key member of the HORAN Wealth Retirement Team, which partners with business leaders to bring clarity, structure, and confidence to retirement plan decision-making through a disciplined, relationship-first approach.
