🌟 J.P. Morgan Chase provides $500K grant launching new Fair Chance Collaborative led Valley of the Sun United Way in City of Phoenix! One in three U.S. adults—more than 70 million people—have some type of arrest or criminal record. To put this in perspective, about the same number of Americans have college degrees right now. Unfortunately, these Americans, who were incarcerated or have a conviction on their record, are essentially unable to secure good jobs in this country. Nearly half of formerly incarcerated people are unemployed one year after leaving prison. This unique collaborative aims to address the this multi-dimensional challenges faced by these individuals who are now seeking employment and stability in the Phoenix metro with a comprehensive approach—coordinating job training, placement, housing assistance, healthcare access, financial counseling and more—to improve outcomes. As a leader committed to inclusive economic growth opportunity and addressing our community's workforce development challenges, JPMorgan Chase & Co. is proud to support this coalition bringing together social services, education, employers, economic development organizations, and top community leaders. By convening the right leaders and organizations to provide coordinated support, we can eliminate barriers that would otherwise silo efforts and ensure that more people in Phoenix will get a fair chance to rejoin the workforce and fully contribute to their families and the local economy. I'm proud to represent our firm on the VSUW board and to be a part of this vital effort. #FairChance #Reentry #SecondChance #WorkforceDevelopment #JPMorgan #CommunityInvestment #SocialImpact #JPMC #JPMorganChase #Chase #VSUW Carla Melissa Bertha Todd Jennifer Chris Neil Deanna Noreen Keri Kristin Ben Alison Monica Tucker Maura Charlie Ben David Latasha Jenny Drena Chad Elissa Mary Owen Mambu Doran Angela Angela Marie Sara Ann Brian Leia

What an AMAZING day! I could not be more excited about this announcement, and to be part of the Fair Chance Collaborative in Arizona. This initiative resonates deeply with our core values at Arouet, where we believe in second chances and the power of collective impact! This is an incredible opportunity for Arizona to rewrite our reentry story, and build an ecosystem and pipeline that will ensure we build a dynamic Fair Chance workforce, which has an array of products, services and support to help them be successful! This is the beginning of something huge and we are so thrilled about it! One in three U.S. adults—that’s more than 70 million people—carry the weight of an arrest or criminal record. These individuals face immense challenges when seeking employment and stability. But today, we’re changing the narrative.👏 The Fair Chance Collaborative is more than a program; it’s a lifeline. It’s coordinating job training, housing assistance, healthcare access, financial counseling, and more. It’s about holistic transformation, breaking down barriers, and creating pathways to opportunity. Thank YOU JPMorgan Chase & Co. for your commitment to inclusive economic growth. Their $500,000 grant fuels this collaborative engine, and together, we’ll ensure that more people in Phoenix get a fair chance to rejoin the workforce and contribute fully to their families and our local economy. And thank you to United Way for offering to take on the work of this incredibly important initiative. As a member of the VSUW Workforce Taskforce I am honored to stand alongside top community leaders, employers, and educators. Let’s rewrite the story—one fair chance at a time. I cannot wait to roll up my sleeves and get to work! #FairChance #Reentry #WorkforceDevelopment #CommunityInvestment #SocialImpact #JPMC #JPMorganChase #Chase #VSUW United Way Arouet

At one of my previous job, my work credits were stolen. Before being a team lead, I was working on an e-commerce project for seasonal festivals for 8 months. I poured my heart and soul to make sure the project is upto the mark—even involved my friends and family. The project was a big success. Our team's hard work had paid off and the client was beyond happy with the results. But, the way credit was shared didn't quite match our individual contributions.  I experienced unfair credit distribution first time. I felt betrayed and deeply saddened. I cried in front of one of my coworkers. This experience taught me how deeply uneven credit distribution can impact. Now after being a team lead myself at AtliQ Technologies, we’ve built a culture of team appreciation. From year plus of my experience, I priortize this: ✅ Appreciating each team member's efforts. ✅ Giving recognition and credit when it’s due. ✅ Sharing the spotlight. ✅ Fairly distributing the credits.   Every effort counts. A team goes the extra mile when they feel appreciated.   #teamappreciation #credits #teambuilding #teamleadership

Time truly flies! Last month marked my third anniversary at Southern Bancorp. Our team has grown, evolved, and accomplished so much—it's amazing to look back and see how far we've come. A few favorites from the last three years: ✨ 9 branch grand openings: From ideation to execution, I had the privilege of contributing to the launch of new branches that are helping to bring financial services to more communities. 💼 Free tax preparation: Last year, we filed over 4,000 taxes for free—such a rewarding initiative! And we're gearing up to do it all over again starting January 21. 🌟 Las Vegas and Financial Brand Forum: I had the opportunity to attend and learn from some of the best in the financial services industry. 👥 Company-wide culture building: Helped plan and attend a 2-day conference focused on strengthening our growing team and company culture. 🤝 Building relationships: I've had the pleasure of connecting with so many talented professionals from diverse backgrounds and experiences. 💡 The journey of growth: From successes to challenges, I’ve had the opportunity to fail, learn, and grow alongside an incredible team. Here's to 2025!

Don’t Forget to Celebrate Your Wins! I recently spoke with a Branch Manager who made a great point: as an industry, we're often too focused on pointing out mistakes and failures, both in ourselves and others. We don’t spend enough time celebrating our wins or recognizing what we’ve done well. Let’s change that. Instead of fixating on the negatives, let’s take a moment to appreciate our successes—big or small—and recognize the contributions of those around us. If a processor, LOA, or underwriter has gone above and beyond to save a loan or help in some way, take a moment to thank them. And don't forget to share that appreciation with the management team. We all work hard, and we deserve to step back and be proud of what we’ve accomplished. Let’s make sure we’re celebrating those victories, both individually and as a team.
