041: Carol Severyn, EVP with Frost Bank – Building a Career by Giving 100%
Carol Severyn, CPA and EVP with Frost Bank, joined us for this week’s episode of Life In Accounting: The Where Accountants Go podcast.
Celebrating 24 years!
Carol started working in the financial institution industry while in college and later moved into an audit role with a CPA firm. After a short time with the accounting firm, a former professor of hers recommended her to Frost Bank for a Senior Auditor role – which obviously has worked out well given that she has just had her 24th anniversary with Frost.
Commit yourself
I asked Carol about the ‘secret to her success’ so-to-speak since she has had a very fruitful career there at Frost. She mentions two key items in that discussion. First of all, it’s important to find an organization that is a good match for your own personal value system. And secondly, once you find that organization make sure you are fully committed career-wise. Step up for new assignments, volunteer for new challenges, and give it the proverbial 100%. This type of commitment is what led Carol to be approached about moving into management with Frost in the first place.
Volunteerism
Carol has been involved in many efforts focused toward helping others. She is one of the founders of the internship program at Frost – a program that gives soon-to-be accounting graduates the opportunity to experience what it is like to work in Internal Audit. She also is active with the nonprofit Any Baby Can and serves on their board. Any Baby Can helps parents of children with serious healthcare needs. More information can be found at www.anybabycansa.org.
I was fortunate to be able to interview Carol for this episode. I hope you enjoy it. She shares a lot of valuable insight.
See you next week! There’s more to come…
