ACCESSbank Annual Report 2023

OUR Culture

Our employees are our most valuable asset and the cornerstone of ACCESSbank’s strong organizational culture. We are deeply committed to nurturing both the personal and professional development of our team. This commitment is reflected in initiatives like our Ambassador Program, which allows employees to engage in one of four employee-led teams: Culture Crew, Wellness Warriors, Community Crusaders or Event Experts. With about a third of our workforce participating as Ambassadors, this program offers a unique platform for employees to make a positive impact on our company culture. For further development, we organized ACCESSprofessional workshops, focusing on enhancing professional skills in areas like LinkedIn presence, professional writing, business etiquette and professional presence. In 2023, we hosted a diverse panel of experts to discuss topics such as inclusivity in the workplace, fostering open conversations among all employees. We also continue to offer significant external development opportunities through collaborations with the Omaha Chamber, Banking Schools, Nebraska Bankers Association, Business Ethics Alliance and various professional associations. Our commitment to our employees is unwavering, and we consistently measure and monitor employee engagement and satisfaction. Our dedication was recognized when we were named a “Best Bank to Work For” by American Banker for the first time. Our internal recognition program, ACCESSrewards, is highly active, spotlighting employees who embody the ACCESSway every day and reinforcing our strong culture where employees are always a top priority.
