John Erban, our Chief People Officer, knows that culture is more than just a buzzword. His path to leadership, shaped by creativity, resilience, and personal challenges, has given him a unique perspective on how to build an environment where people truly thrive.

 

In this episode of People in Focus, John shares:

  • How his empathetic leadership was forged from childhood creativity and adversity

  • The impact of living with a chronic illness on his pace, ambition, and perspective

  • Why clarity is kindness and how it influences his leadership

  • What culture really means in practice and how to scale it in a high-growth company

Join us for a candid conversation about life, leadership, and building workplaces that are as human as they are high performing.
