At Work with Sean St. John of National Bank – Talking Leadership and Values
Summary
With a set of core values in tow, the business executive accredits much of his success to the dedication of the people around him, predominantly his team at National Bank Financial. In 2016, he helped National Bank become the top adviser on Canadian debt issues for corporations and governments. In addition to his professional work, St. John is a devoted philanthropist, dedicating his time and expertise to organizations such as Right To Play, the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation, and Connected North. We recently sat down with Sean St. John to discuss his career trajectory, his leadership style and what core values he believes are necessary for life in the business world. Caring does not mean tolerating shoddy performance or bad attitudes, but it does mean realizing your team is the most important resource in any organization.
