Emily Robinson and Laurie Oswald on Building a People First Culture
Emily Robinson has spent 28 years at FirstBank Colorado, starting as a management trainee and becoming the first woman on the senior leadership team in the company's history. Laurie Oswald left 20 years in corporate manufacturing and technology to build a business focused on elevating the human experience at work. With Greg Aden they talk about why stated values mean nothing unless you live them daily, how sharing kind truth builds trust, and why curiosity is the trait Emily looks for when she interviews management trainees each year. They also push back on work life balance, make the case for authenticity over perfection, and share the advice they give young leaders about finding a place for their own style.
