Independence Blue Cross Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer Crystal Ashby joined Dr. Laura Sicola on the Speaking to Influence podcast for a conversation about being intentional and fostering meaningful communication with others.
In the episode — “Leadership and Creating Opportunities” — Ashby shares tips on finding and getting comfortable with your voice, understanding exactly what a new role might entail, and creating space for all employees to shine – virtually and in person.
“I feel responsible for how we stay connected to our associates. How do we engage, how do we stay connected, how do we keep people creatively connected to each other in a remote space? I feel that — as the Chief People Officer — that is one of the most critical things this role helps to do, as well as continuing to keep the associates’ safety first and foremost in our minds,” said Ashby.
