#21: How to Create That Meaningful Work Experience with Amanda Young Talent Matters
-
- マネージメント
We’re all familiar with CEOs and CFOs, but we’re well overdue for a Chief Officer in the HR department. That’s why Amanda Young is here as Chief Human Resources Officer at Bankers Trust — to talk about what that role means and how the expectations have changed over the past two decades.
Amanda started her career in HR, working through internships and learning from mentors along the way. She found herself as an HR manager at 27, and today she is one of Fortune’s 40 under 40 as the CHRO at Bankers Trust. She manages a team of 525 employees and, although banks are known for being stuffy and structured, Amanda brings new life to the industry by focusing on creating the meaningful work experiences employees want.
Just over the past two years, the talent landscape has changed. People are leaving behind traditional roles for a variety of experiences that bring new depth to their careers. It’s less about climbing the corporate ladder and more about enriching the work experience. For Amanda, it’s about creating the flexibility for her team to do just that.
Like many businesses, Bankers Trust transitioned to a more flexible workplace over the pandemic. But more than going online, the bank relaxed the dress code and maintained its focus on leadership and managerial training. Amanda is still facing a few obstacles in the coming year, but learning to respond to changes instead of just reacting to them isn’t one. Her intentional responses and the deliberate and collaborative programs she’s implemented for her team continue to provide them with the meaningful experiences they need.
Of course, not every program can be a success story. Amanda shares her pitfalls and what happens when the programs you plan don’t have any follow-through. It really takes a team to manage a company, and she takes care to enrich and empower her team just as much as she empowers herself. Tune in now to hear more about the role of a Chief Human Resources Officer and the resources Amanda uses for herself.
