And then after about three months or so, I had that other emotion happen, which is, I think I like this. I'm enjoying this work. Fast forward three to five years to where we are today, and I am still making Keem's companies and leaders better. In between, I was privileged to work for some great companies and having been mentored by incredible human resources leaders, mostly female.

at Avon Products, at Heineken, at Sony, and at Disney. And I am really a talent development leader and grateful to be in this space and business and here speaking with you and Tricia today. So thank you for having me.

At Disney, working at Imagineering, I would say a talent leader who gets business. And I met Trish initially when I was new at the company and saw her in a meeting, and I thought, this is a business leader who gets talent. So as in a talent development role, You're always looking for business leaders who get talent as much as their technical or functional skills. And that certainly was Trish.

So I was delighted to meet her. So from a professional support and business relationship perspective now, I had a goal to lead talent development at Imagineering, which was to make sure that leaders and teams globally were working and successfully at building their next level up leadership goals. I could in no way do that by myself. So I was always looking for business partners.

And Tricia was that business partner. And I was just delighted to that early meeting. We had a couple of meetings and I thought this is something that is a beginning of a collaboration that I think could be very promising.

Absolutely. And such great memories and thoughts and feelings of how we got started. Absolutely. Really fun.

Yeah, I would say it was 20, 20, let's see, 14. Yes.

Absolutely agree with you, Trish. And I feel that what was fundamental but still unformed until after we left Disney were the five collaboration behaviors. And we demonstrated them, right? And then others also did. And that was how we first role modeled it and grew the team.

So coupled with the five behaviors, which were essentially pretty innovative and pretty human behaviors and very original because we've hired a researcher to validate that they are unique. They were coupled with a noble purpose, and that's not just the vision and mission of the company that people memorize or try to memorize or try to live.

The noble purpose of the project is that it's commonly understood, but also internalized. I am here to do this, to meet this goal, but I'm here first to work closely and support the career growth of my team members. And in that first meeting, it was not to receive a list of tasks and come back and say how many you did. That first meeting was, who are you?
