Today we have Kelly Scullin, People Leader, Solutioneer and Culuture Warrior at American Marketing Association here to talk about how she helped AMA create company culture centered around yes, and! Grab your notebook, iPad, tablet, or whatever you take notes on, because this episode is full of practical nuggets that you can implement today. Let’s get to improvin’ it!   About the Guest: Kelly Scullin is a People Leader, Solutioneer, Culture Warrior, and a SHRM Senior Certified Professional. Having worked across various industries – healthcare, insurance, and nonprofit alike – Kelly employs a broad managerial perspective to create sensible, actionable  people strategies and solutions. Life pointed Kelly to an HR career by accident; no sooner did she fall deeply and madly in love with the work that draws on both her identities as Logician and Creative. After more than three years at insurance giant AIG, she joined the AMA (the American Marketing Association) in 2013 to build the HR discipline from the ground up, nurturing an organizational fitness approach that yields high engagement, low turnover, and a rich community experience. A self-proclaimed Recovering Type A, this Kentucky-girl-turned-Chicagoan uses motherhood, backpacking, Dungeons and Dragons, travel, and more to sharpen her improv skills and aid her growth personally and professionally. -- Show Links:
