In this episode of the Lykken on Lending podcast, David interviews Ian Franz and Julie Gross about Company Culture.

Ian Franz - headshotWhat is Your Company Doing About Creating Culture?

If you’re not actively setting out to create the type of culture you want at your business, then you can be assured that it is being created for you by your employees, even if it’s a mesh of clashing personalities from various employees.

In this episode we’ll discuss what makes great culture and how you can begin to influence your company to move in a direction that inspires everyone to be their best.

We’ll also look at some current hot topics that should be of interest to everyone in your company: equal pay and opportunities for women, the millennial generation, company camaraderie, leading with respect and thoughtful behavior to everyone, and giving back to your community.

Veterans United Home LoansVeterans United is a VA-approved lender with 2,400 employees known for its company culture, having made the Fortune Magazine 100 Best Companies to Work For list in 2016, 2017 and 2018, and the 2017 People Magazine’s Companies that Care list, and several other Fortune lists, such as Best Workplaces for Women, Millennials, Camaraderie, and Giving Back.

Julie Gross Certainty Home LoansJulie Gross

EVP, Chief Training Officer and Culture Keeper – Certainty Home Loans

Julie’s passion for the mortgage banking industry is evident from the minute you meet her. With over forty years of mortgage banking experience, Julie can speak confidently about all aspects of our business.

Certainty Home LoansAs a “day one” employee, Julie helped to build Certainty Home Loans and in her 18 years with the company, has worn many hats. She has a diverse knowledge of both operations and production. With a very genuine desire to help loan officers succeed, she uses a hands on, old school “from the heart” approach while training. Julie created Certainty Home Loans University several years ago and has graduated several “platoons” of young mortgage bankers to pay it forward in our industry.

In 2011 the company created The Julie Gross Culture Award honoring Julie’s legacy in helping to build and keep the culture strong. Each year Julie presents this award to an employee who exemplifies the true culture of the company.
