The most inspiring thing about my work (and the work of all of my colleagues at Norwest) is when it “clicks” for our CEOs and portfolio execs that Norwest is different. When they realize our team is all-in when it comes to every aspect of a portfolio company’s journey. It sounds clichĂ© but I see it all the time. Genuine thanks – and often surprise – for the time and energy our team puts in to not only company building, but relationship building. It’s unique and makes me proud to be at Norwest!
