Episode Details

Crista Walker joins host Meg McKeen for a conversation about squishy leadership topics like purpose – who has time for that? – the risk of admitting you have it all but maybe don’t want it all, and bad bosses. May you neither have one nor be one! Crista provides a modern definition of what it means to be a leader today - and some practical ideas for helping us to see ourselves as others might.   

Meet Crista Walker

Crista Walker, Vice President, Agent Engagement & Programs, took the path less traveled to arrive in the insurance industry and at her work home at Liberty Mutual/Safeco. This path included military service, founding a start-up, and working for two Bill Gates companies. Crista’s passion in leadership is to help build presence, authenticity, and a highly connected team. In her words, “I quite happily live on an island in the Puget Sound.”
