Welcome back to the Purpose Summit Series on Stories from the River! In the second episode of the series, host Charlie Malouf welcomes Dr. Amber Selking, who discusses her extensive involvement with The Purpose Summit. Dr. Selking has been with Lippert for six years and serves as an executive in culture and leadership, spearheading a global team dedicated to culture development, leadership coaching, philanthropy, chaplaincy, and more. She shares her journey from corporate America to applied sports psychology and how she integrates mental performance coaching with her role at Lippert and with LSU football. Emphasizing the importance of a high-performance culture, Amber explains how Lippert focuses on making business a force for good by fostering an environment where vision, mission, and values are lived daily.
Amber shares her philosophy on high-performing organizations - that they need to be top-down, bottom-up, and contextually relevant.
She also talks about the profound influence of Bob Chapman's TED Talk (related to his book "Everybody Matters") on Lippert's cultural transformation, driven by CEO Jason Lippert's realization of the importance of caring for employees. Dr. Selking and Charlie discuss the impact of the Purpose Summit on attendees, encouraging them to take actionable steps based on their current season of life or business.
The episode concludes with a light-hearted anecdote about a mutual friend and Memory Maker, Carl Hillesland, whose interview process at The River involved an impromptu reference call to Amber, showcasing the interconnectedness and supportive network cultivated through their professional journeys.
