Greater Texas Credit Union’s Post

Anyone who has worked with me knows how dogged I am about getting to the root issue of People stuff. If people are stressed and anxious at work, there's likely a crack in the foundation. We miss those cracks because we assume that the basics are in place (they must be! right?....right?!?) and go looking for higher-level problems to solve. coLeague's *Talent Diagnostic* uncovers the root cause of a lot of big People challenges because it's laser-focused on what people need in order to feel calm and safe enough to focus on what actually matters for them and their team. Wouldn't it be nice, in just a few weeks, with very little effort on your part, to get a clear picture of what is destabilizing your team? And what to tackle first to solve it?? Hit me up in my DMs if you wanna hear more. :)

Today, we celebrate the incredible contributions of workers and embrace the dawn of a new month, let this occasion serve as a medium for self-reflection, a time for us to appreciate our accomplishments and identify areas for growth and improvement. As we set on this new chapter, let us grab the power of strategic planning, refined approaches and ensure we operate at our highest potential. 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲! 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡!

Innovative. Dynamic. Inclusive. These are just a few of the words our valued employees use to describe Conner Strong & Buckelew. Check out more of what our team members have to say in this short video.

As we celebrate the heart of every business—our customers—let’s remember that great service goes beyond problem-solving. It’s about creating meaningful connections and delivering value in every interaction. Whether you're on the frontlines or behind the scenes, your commitment makes a difference. Let’s use this week as a reminder to listen more, respond better, and exceed expectations, ensuring that every experience leaves a lasting, positive impression. Here’s to a week of excellence and brilliance

Going into the new year, how are you making sure the different voices on your team are heard? Recently, I had the pleasure of facilitating a corporate team workshop for a group of 12 doing some pretty incredible work serving some of NJ’s most vulnerable populations. During our time together, we explored ways to amplify the voices of all team members, especially those who might otherwise go unheard. For context, on this team of 12 - nine were Generators or Manifesting Generators and just three were Projectors or Manifestors. Some ideas we discussed included: ✔️ Assigning a team member (regardless of their Human Design) to play the role of devil’s advocate during big discussions ✔️ Intentionally inviting input from quieter team members This conversation got me thinking more broadly: ⁉️ How do teams create environments to make sure different voices are heard? In your experience, what practices have worked well to create space for all voices on a team? Have you observed specific techniques to help draw out quieter team members or those with contrarian views? Let me know below! 🙏🏾

While you and your coworkers are high-fiving this year’s successes, take a moment to reflect on the people who’ve shaped your team—even those who aren’t here anymore. Whether it’s a colleague who brought joy to meetings, a client who made work better, or someone whose influence still inspires, their impact is worth remembering. Honoring them doesn’t have to be complicated. Small, heartfelt gestures—like printing their favorite phrase on pencils to keep their words alive or sending a note to their family, or serving their favorite dish at a team lunch—can strengthen your team’s connection and remind everyone how much they mattered. For inspiration, Beyond The Gravestone offers a playful and practical list of ideas, blending creativity and heart. It’s good for the team, the culture, and the community—and it might spark new ways to celebrate people in your company that haven't clocked out yet! https://lnkd.in/eSzyHFTx Let’s make space to honor the people who’ve shaped us. If you give something a try, I’d love to hear what resonated!

Delivery excellence and innovative partnership at all cost. It’s the “no matter what,” promise we stand behind.

Celebrations create a sense of camaraderie and reinforce that efforts and contributions are recognized and valued. When benchmarks are met, anniversaries are achieved, or challenges are overcome - acknowledge it. Celebrate individual and team successes. Publicly acknowledge and appreciate the achievements of your team members. glcbs.com #tipforMonday #MondayMotivation #companyculture #motivatedteams #healthyworkplace

Today was our QBR day, and it's always my favorite day of our five-chapter year. It's a chance to celebrate our team's wins and, most importantly, the learnings from our therapists and how we can better serve them. Reflecting on our journey, we see where we've made good decisions to serve our therapists and where we've had missteps that seemed right at the time for our business. Striking this balance in company building is tough, but it becomes easier when your teams, from executives to staff, stay close to the customer – in our case, the therapists. With each chapter, I can see us getting closer to our goals. The upcoming chapter is particularly exciting as we focus on three key themes from our therapists: Reducing the pain and rewarding the completion of chores Therapist personalization and value adds Access to human experts Lastly, as building cohesiveness and buy-in across teams is important, here's a snapshot from our OKR doc that Kristin Kaiser Mulligan put together to motivate the team around the year. With a value proposition heavily driven by tax, we have a business that operates much like a climbing stage in the Tour de France. This small thematic touch reiterates why our team believes so deeply in KK as our day-to-day operational leader and Company President.
