As chairman of American Pacific Mortgage, Kurt has led the company since its inception and through its steady, strategic growth over the last 25 years. In 2020, APM was named one of the largest independent mortgage banks in the country. Under Kurt's chairmanship, APM moved from an independently owned company to become partially employee-owned—giving shares of the company back to APM employees and further enhancing the dynamic company culture he's played an active role in building. 

In this episode Steve and Kurt discuss:

• Celebrating life and showing up as a leader 
• The hard part of keeping your values 
• Communicating your values with your team 
• Tips  to follow to experience success in your career 

Key Takeaways: 

• Celebrate life and celebrate growth, both in your life and in the lives of others. Make it a point to show up as the best leader that you can possibly be. 
• Looking up fancy words to add to your values statement is the easy part; living it out is what will separate the successful companies from those that are not. 
• Communicate with your people how important it is to be impeccable in your service and keep your commitments. 
• Be a student of your business, know your craft and strive to be an expert. Identify good mentors, observe people that do great things that you’d like to imitate. Strive to consistently put out quality work or quality service. 

“The way we live out our values is we filter all of our decisions through those values.” - Kurt Reisig
