What does it take to be a female CEO of a Regional Bank? Tenacity!
Our guest in today's episode is Angie O'Neill, President and CEO of MN Bank & Trust. Angie shares some very interesting stories and perspectives that were inspiring and motivating as well. How many female CEOs of a bank do you know? We didn't personally know any until today's show!
Angie's primary focus is on the people; customers first. When it's about giving great service, she's always focused on the customer, which is how she became so respected throughout her journey to the top position! She's a people person, loves to collaborate, and the team approach is the way to solve for just about anything. Her open door policy has her employees feeling at ease and her clients still call her (even though she's not handling their banking needs herself anymore). A shining example of a client centric leader.
She always worked very hard, advocating for her clients beyond expectations and putting in the extra effort to keep them engaged and happy. She treats her staff the same way.
There are lots of big things happening at MN Bank & Trust, like a merger with UMB! . Angie says bringing the two banks together will make for a commercial banking powerhouse, and grow the services that business owners need and want beyond the impressive menu they already have, not to mention the two cultures are a great fit!
When I asked her how she was able to become so successful in banking, she said the primary trait was tenacity. We could all use a little more of that in our world, couldn't we?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
