“Creating a people-first culture is both our challenge and our greatest opportunity.”
- Kristy-Lynn Lechner
What does a people-first culture mean to you? What does it look like? Feel like? In this episode, my guest shares her philosophy and wisdom around people-first culture, and how she has leveraged the Leadership Circle Profile tool to help leaders become more self-aware and more effective at driving business success.
My guest today is Kristy-Lynn Lechner. Kristy-Lynn is the Director, People & Culture with Wesgroup Properties, one of Western Canada’s largest private real estate companies with a diversified portfolio spanning across residential and commercial real estate. Her mandate is to drive Wesgroup’s people strategy, in collaboration with leaders, employee’s and the People & Culture team, ensuring each element is aligned with their culture, values, and business goals.
Prior to joining Wesgroup, she was the Director, Human Resources with Teekay Corporation, one of the worlds leading marine energy transportation companies. Working in this large, global organization for 20 years gave her the opportunity to grow her career as an HR generalist, supporting countless global people initiatives while engaging with various employee groups and leaders at all levels, including a memorable 7-month secondment to Norway.
Kristy-Lynn is committed to making a difference in the organizations and people she supports. She believes leading with curiosity and compassion have been foundational to her success.
