Let’s talk about finding your passion. Sometimes it is less than obvious, but it is always a journey! Kelly is joined by Fumbi Chima, CIO and Executive Vice President at BECU to discuss her career journey, and the skills she honed along the way. One of the most important skills being curiosity. Staying curious and constantly innovating was the key to Fumbi’s amazing success!  

Fumbi believes you have to ask for help and not be afraid of doing so.  

Big Takeaways:  

• (8:29) It's not being scared to say 'here's what I want to do--here's my aspiration.' It's the admission of 'yes, this is what I want and this is who I want to be' that is so important.
• (11:06) "I ascribe innovation to natural curiosity. Whether it's process, functionality, or people; how do you refine it? I'm constantly curious, trying to make things just a little bit better than they were before." 
• (15:35) I would say 'no' is not an option. 'I cannot' is not an option either, because you've got to explore everything. Ask for help. Tell people what your aspirations are so they can find ways to help you.
