Скачать или смотреть Creating a Mission-Driven Culture with Thomas South

When it comes to attracting talent, Thomas South believes it’s not necessarily about being specialized or competing based on benefits packages alone. Rather, he believes that creating a mission-driven culture is key to recruiting employees that will thrive in your organization.


As EVP of Northern Trust, Thomas oversees teams of wealth managers with extensive knowledge of the financial industry. While technology is integral to the company’s path forward, Thomas has found that human touch is needed to complement an expanding suite of digital tools.


He joined Patrick and Shelli to discuss why mission-driven values are important to any business as well as how to balance human knowledge and experience with increasingly remote, online environments.
