You will never go wrong prioritizing people, and this interview with Dee Ann Turner proves it. Dee Ann is a best-selling author, a 33-year veteran of Chick-fil-A, Inc. She was selected as the company’s first female officer in 2001 and served as the Vice President, Talent and Vice President, Sustainability. In this interview, she and Alex discuss the difference between calling and career and how to find the sweet spot where they overlap. They also talk about her new book Crush Your Career and advise how to make the most out of a mentoring relationship.

The three things you have to have in your organization. 

  1. You have to have a strong, healthy, remarkable culture.
  2. You have to be part of something bigger than yourself. You have to have a bigger and worthy vision that's focused on serving and impacting lives.
  3. You have to create development and learning opportunities. You have to invest in the growth and development of your team.
