Making an impact: Laura Oropeza
Being awarded Lockton’s Community Impact Award was more than just a career milestone for Laura Oropeza. “Winning this award is a huge moment in my career, but I can say with confidence that it is a proud moment in my life too,” she reflects. “It is a rewarding feeling to be able to provide for others and contribute to something that has a bigger purpose.” The Community Impact Award, funded by the Lockton family, honors Associates who have gone above and beyond to make their community a better place through volunteering and philanthropy. Laura was awarded a $25,000 donation to a charity of her choice on behalf of the Lockton family. She chose Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities as her recipient. Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities is a nonprofit that provides education, training, rehabilitation, therapy, and support services to individuals with disabilities. For Laura, one of the most powerful aspects of this work has been witnessing the students defy social expectations and stigma. “Driving development has always been one of my passions and seeing the students of Al Noor fully embody their personal growth despite so many challenges is incredibly powerful.” Equally meaningful for Laura has been the engagement of her Lockton colleagues. “It fills me with pride and gratitude to see so many Associates asking to help and be involved. It is wholesome to know our culture transposes levels beyond the office and within our community.” For Laura, this commitment to community is tied directly to her personal background. “I feel that my heritage and family have contributed to who I am and what values I stand for in everything that I do,” she explains. “The efforts and sacrifices that my family made to secure a dignified and comfortable future for the next generations didn’t go unnoticed. Giving back is a way of expressing my gratitude and acknowledging my privilege with the hope to inspire and empower others to do the same.” Laura’s belief in the importance of connection and shared humanity drives her work. “At the end of the day, we’re far more than just our nationality and language, we are connected in many more ways than we think,” she says. Through it all, Laura credits Lockton’s unique culture for empowering her to make a difference. “Lockton’s caring culture is truly special,” she says. “It’s not every day that you find a company that ‘walks the talk.’ Lockton encourages you to be the best version of yourself. Our culture is about seeing the bigger picture, and this approach enables anyone to think exponentially. When giving back, individuals can create a significant impact through everyday actions. It’s a valuable approach at work but also in life.” For Laura Oropeza, the Community Impact Award is not just a recognition of her efforts, but a reflection of the values she lives by every day. Through her work with Al Noor and her leadership at Lockton, she continues to make a lasting impact on her community.

My career, my story: Brian Roberts
Whether on the field or in the office, at his core, Brian Roberts is a coach. After a successful soccer career that saw him start every game during his four-year career at Yale and playing professionally with the Kansas City Wizards, Brian switched to coaching in 2005 and never truly looked back. The leadership, strategic thinking and management skills Brian learned on the pitch have since transferred to his current role at Lockton – Chief Operating Officer of the Midwest region. Since joining Lockton in 2009, Brian has held a variety of operations roles. But one thing remains – his intense focus on growth. “I believe I’m here to coach and help people get better. And I get to coach at the highest level in this role,” said Brian. At Lockton, your career is yours to customize, and Brian is one of many Associates across the globe bringing that value to life. Read more below, in Brian’s own words, about the career he’s built at Lockton. When did you start working at Lockton? In 2009, I was coaching Ron Lockton’s daughter in soccer. He told me it would be good for me if I joined Lockton. I didn’t know what it was at the time, but I eventually took him up on a conversation and took the offer. At the time, I was looking for an organization that did things the right way. I had worked for a couple of places that said one thing but did the exact opposite. So, I was looking for a place that was true to itself and had the right spirit. For almost 15 years now, Lockton has been that place. What were the catalysts for your changes in positions at Lockton? The melody line of my career at Lockton is growth. I originally interviewed to be a Producer and decided that it wasn’t the right fit and so I joined the operations team. My starting title was Associate and for seven years there was no title movement. I worked on the operations team finding ways to help the business get better. I then took a different role as Director of Operations. Shortly after, 2020 happened and all the anxiety around George Floyd and diversity came to the forefront. I made some noise about our DEI efforts. That led me to take on our Chief Diversity Officer role for two years until we could hire someone. At the time, I was open to COO opportunities. When the opportunity to become COO of our Midwest region became available, I was honored to take it. What did your time as Chief Diversity Officer tell you about Lockton? My time as Chief Diversity Officer says a few things about Lockton. One, they listen to their people. Two, it would have been easy to go out and spend money to hire the best diversity resume out there. From a diversity standpoint, I couldn’t put my resume next to other candidates. The choice to hire someone internally initially was important. We needed someone who understood Lockton in that role first. There’s a right way to make changes at Lockton and there’s a wrong way. Had we brought in someone from outside Lockton, they wouldn’t have worked in our decentralized model. Peter Clune’s choice to bring me in shows our culture drives us and has to stay in the forefront and that we remain who we are. Why Lockton? It’s the people. In each spot I’ve been in, I’ve been empowered to shape the job around who I am instead of trying to shape me into the square hole that’s there. I think that’s important. That’s something Lockton does well. There’s a ton of freedom in the framework here. You have a lot of freedom to make your career what you want. How has Lockton supported you professionally? I don’t even know how to quantify all that Lockton has done for me. I’m the first person in my family to go to college and I didn’t grow up in a corporate environment. I had to learn everything – from how to dress for a corporate job to a large amount of business acumen. I’ve had a ton of on-the-job mentorship. I have a lot of room to make mistakes and try things. Fortunately, a lot of those things have worked but a lot haven’t. There were things where they didn’t work, and leadership is good with taking those swings. How has Lockton supported you personally? Well, I married a Lockton Associate, so there’s that! There’s been a couple of moments where the organization has rallied around me or my family. They’ve invested in the whole person. Whether that be investing in specific training or development, or just saying “hey you need to take some time off,” whatever the case may be, they’re invested in the Associate. How would you describe Lockton’s culture to someone outside of the company? I like to describe our culture in this way: it’s like the best locker room I’ve ever been a part of. We are all competing to be better each and every day and pushing each other to be better. There’s healthy internal competition but that competition pales in comparison to us fighting the other team. We love to win and grow, and that’s important. The best locker rooms create a culture so strong, that when someone who doesn’t fit or align with values enters it, the system spits them out. Our culture is getting stronger with what is and isn’t Lockton. Sometimes we trivialize culture and only talk about beer Fridays and parties – they’re great but not our culture. It’s about collaboration, autonomy and the growth of our people and business. What is your “Lockton moment”? I don’t have one moment. I often think about this … if I had to say something, I would say thank you to Ron [Lockton]. There aren’t that many companies that recruit a black soccer coach off the field, who majored in biology and doesn’t know anything about insurance but can bring him into the company and become a C-level executive. So, it’s not a moment, but the opportunity provided gives a great story. What has surprised you most about working at Lockton? The lack of rules always surprises me and makes me happy. People want to legislate behavior. You see in the news that when things don’t go well, we make a new rule or law. That’s proven not to work. We are a $3B company and have resisted the temptation to over-structure. We give our people freedom and autonomy, and it’s surprising we’ve been able to stay that true to who we are. I’d definitely add that to the list of reasons why I stay here. What advice would you give to someone considering a career at Lockton? It takes you two years to become Lockton smart. We’re a different company and you must accept that as you come in. You need to reserve judgment and let it come to you. We are a wonderfully weird organization. What does “You Belong at Lockton" mean to you? You’re welcome at Lockton. If there was an ellipsis, I’d finish the sentence with “You Belong at Lockton if you’re ready to be the best version of yourself.” If you’re not, then you don’t belong at Lockton. You’ve got to be willing to push and extend yourself if you really want to get the most out of working here.

Crystal Lynn Life at Lockton Banner

My career, my story: Crystal Lynn
Crystal Lynn embodies the best of finance, data, process, interpersonal relationships, business excellence, and professionalism. Since joining Lockton in 2005, Crystal’s business acumen and knack for relationship building have led her to a successful career in operations at many different levels within the Lockton organization. “I started my career at Lockton shortly out of college as a senior staff accountant in our accounting and finance department. I assumed early on I would follow the typical accounting career path, but that hasn’t been the case based on where my passion lies,” said Crystal. As a staff accountant, Crystal’s first role helped her develop a deeper knowledge of large corporate financials and the Lockton business model. But despite excelling with numbers, Crystal had a vision for the bigger picture business plans. Her ability to forge relationships, create practical and effective business solutions, and build teams from the ground up accelerated Crystal to her current position as COO of Lockton’s Transaction Liability Practice. "There are so many areas for growth outside of a traditional growth path at Lockton. My last two roles are newly created positions. As Lockton grows, so do the opportunities,” continued Crystal. At Lockton, your career is yours to customize, and Crystal is one of many Associates across the globe bringing that value to life. Read more below, in Crystal’s own words, about the career she’s built at Lockton. When did you start working at Lockton? I started at Lockton in 2005. I had just moved to Kansas City and was working with a recruiter to look for a new role. I had an offer from another highly regarded company when I received a call from the recruiter saying Lockton had a senior staff accountant position open. While I was ready to accept the other offer, the recruiter was very convincing that I should at least interview with Lockton. I interviewed with two people, one of which is still a mentor, and I knew within the first five minutes that I needed to be at Lockton. I declined the offer at the other company and this started my journey at Lockton. What were the catalysts for your changes in positions at Lockton? After two years as a senior staff accountant, I felt like I was ready to take the step to divisional controller. I was pregnant with my first child but had conversations before leaving for my parental leave that I would be promoted when I returned. I loved that role. I worked closely with the COOs, Producers and other executive leadership for my offices. Through these relationships and conversations, they knew I was interested in exploring operations, and did whatever they could to bring me into operational matters to help me develop. Then came my second child. Once again, when I came back from parental leave, I was promoted to divisional accounting manager. I was worried about what the role might be, as I was worried it would take me out of the operational aspect that I loved so much, but I had multiple Lockton leaders tell me that I can make the position what I wanted it to be. I ended up taking it. A few years into that position, I received a call that there was a need for an operations manager on the property and casualty side of the business and the P&C leadership had heard this was an area of interest to me. There was no existing role at the time. After interviewing with the leader of P&C, I was offered the position. In that role, I built strong relationships with our carrier partners and worked closely with the best P&C leaders in the industry and our Transaction Liability (TL) team, among others. Because of my close involvement with the TL team, when Lockton made the decision to invest in TL in 2020, I was asked to help acclimate the four new leaders to Lockton. As I continued to work closely with them, they asked me to be their COO. Why Lockton? What attracted me to Lockton and what has kept me at Lockton, is the people. No matter what role I’ve been in, it feels like a team. Everyone has each other’s back. Everyone is invested in others’ success. Everyone treats the business as their own. What is your favorite part about your current role? The team that we’ve created. As we are building the practice out, we are really careful about who we are hiring and bringing in to make sure they are the right cultural fit; hiring people who treat the business like it’s their own, are invested in each other’s growth and development, and dedicated to a team atmosphere. We work extremely hard, and everyone is in it together. How has Lockton supported you professionally? Lockton provided the infrastructure to grow and the people at Lockton provided the inspiration to reach. What is your “Lockton moment”? When our new TL leaders joined Lockton, I was asked to help acclimate them to Lockton. No one was forcing us to work together – I was there to temporarily help them. In February 2021, as we were working through financial plans and figuring out how we wanted to staff and bring in key hires, they started talking about needing a COO. They asked me when I was going to come over full-time and be their COO… I said, “The second you ask.” My goal was always to be a COO and that was the moment for me that was like wow, this is my shot. It was the best decision I ever made and couldn’t be happier to be in the role I’m in today, working with the most amazing team. Our employer branding tagline is “You Belong at Lockton.” What does this statement mean to you? Throughout the time that I’ve spent at Lockton, I’ve never even considered other outside opportunities. There is no place I would rather be. Crystal and the Transaction Liability team
