With over 50 years providing quality potatoes to our customers; It takes a strong work ethic, good partnerships (like our relationship with BNC National Bank) and in this case a true dedicated family commitment to continue growing day to day.

Starting your own business is difficult enough, but the financing of a startup can be extremely challenging.

The entire staff at BNC made this process clear, concise, and expedited. Partnering with BNC National Bank to assist with our financing has helped our business grow to seven OrangeTheory Fitness locations and five AmeriCare locations with other franchisee ownership opportunities still available.

Our business revolves around our customers’ ever changing design requests. This pushes our company to react quickly.

Let BNC National Bank be your choice for all your banking needs.

WOMEN BRING NEW PERSPECTIVE, LEADERSHIP TO BUSINESS WORLD

by Jerry P. Weiers, Mayor, City of Glendale

Her outstanding leadership and commitment to her profession make her a leader in her own right.

But it is her big heart and willingness to help the community that truly separates her from the rest.

GLENDA LE LI V ING

A

s Mayor of the great City of Glendale, I meet and work with many fantastic people. One of the best parts of this job is getting to know folks from all walks of life.

This issue is dedicated to women in business, and over the years I have personally worked with many amazing women. Starting with my office, the ones who keep me busy and ensure I am booked all day every day to the leaders and colleagues in the City and beyond. It has always been an honor to serve alongside empowered women.

Women bring a new perspective to the business world. One of those women who has shown exemplary leadership through her involvement with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce is former Chair of the Board of Directors Jean Higginbotham from Blue Cross Blue Shield. Jean always has a positive attitude and outlook on things.

Her outstanding leadership and commitment to her profession make her a leader in her own right. But it is her big heart and willingness to help the community that truly separates her from the rest. I have called on Jean many times for special projects and to help with local needs. She always finds a way to help.

As recently as last November, Jean lead an effort with Blue Cross Blue Shield that helped donate $10,000 to Hope for Hunger Food Bank in addition to dozens of turkeys for the Hometow n Christmas Parade food drive. She has also had key roles in the Shriner’s Bowling Palooza and the replacement of the air-conditioning system at Hope for Hunger.

The Glendale Chamber of Commerce would simply not be the same w ithout her. She recently passed on the gavel to another

hard working, community focused woman, Maria Brunner of OneAZ Credit Union who I look forward to working more with. Women have taken on leadership roles over time and they bring great strengths to the business world. In recent years, we’ve experienced an increase in women’s leadership across industries.

A great example of this is Congresswoman Martha Mc Sally who is a retired Colonel and former fighter pilot for the United Sates Air Force. A well-known Glendale woman who made a name for herself as Governor of Arizona is Jan Brewer. In education, we have Midwestern University President Dr. Kathleen H. Goeppinger and Glendale Community College President Dr. Teresa Leyba Ruiz. These women are just a few examples of Glendale leaders.

I am inspired every day by the idea of making a difference in people’s lives. As I work to accomplish that goal I see first-hand the impact women are making in business. When we all work together and blur the lines that used to divide us, we can accomplish greater good for our communities.

It is important to continue to build strong women, that we provide a support network to foster creativity and provide mentorship opportunities for the young women around us. Here in Glendale these opportunities are made available through the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Commission where I see the potential in our future leaders.

This gives me great hope that we will have excellent leaders to build on the work we have done.

For that reason, I celebrate all the women in business that make a difference and impact the great City of Glendale!

WOMEN LEADING GROWTH AREAS IN GLENDALE

by Kevin Phelps, City Manager, City of Glendale

O I am pleased the data reported by our economic development department, related to our local businesses, shows strong numbers for women in the workforce in Glendale’s biggest business growth areas.

14

GLENDA LE LI V ING

nce a year, there is a meeting I go to where I know I’ll be completely outnumbered by the opposite gender.

Along with only about a handful of other men from across the state, I join hundreds of women at the annual Arizona Women Leading Government’s conference.

The goal of this event is to empower women in local government to grow in their passion to impact their community. I attend to learn and show support for the importance of developing female leadership.

About a dozen women who work for the city of Glendale attend the conference, including Megan Sheldon with our Environmental Services Department, who says she attends for the opportunity to hear from and be inspired by women who share her dedication to public service.

The simple fact is that investing in the economic empowerment of women drives growth for their families, communities and local markets. According to a McKinsey Global Institute report, advancing women’s equality — including economic participation — could add $12 trillion to global growth by 2025. This report also said the public, private and social sectors will need to act together to close gender gaps in work and society.

I am pleased the data reported by our economic development depart-

ment, related to our local businesses, shows strong numbers for women in the workforce in Glendale’s biggest business growth areas. For health care and social assistance services, women represent 76 percent of the total workforce in our city. Other robust areas for women employment are in finance, insurance and real estate industries.

We now have strategies in place to create a culture of success to also help women business owners get the knowledge they need to succeed. We have a new business at the airport now, Starshine AZ, which is owned by women and is entirely about supporting and connecting small businesses, women-owned businesses and entrepreneurs with tools and resources.

Also, our libraries have just started offering a monthly Empowering Women in Business series. So far speakers have included the female owner of a downtown business who shared what it takes to start and operate a successful business and an expert offering tips for personal branding in a digital age and strategies necessary to create a stand-out brand.

I owned several businesses before I began serving in government and sometimes hear a common myth that compared to people in the business arena, government employees demonstrate less passion about what they do. In my experience, nothing could be further from the truth.

By attending the AZ Women in Government conference, I’ve learned there’s not much difference in the desire for public sector and private sector employees to be lifelong, creative learners. I look around and see a group of successful, motivated women who recognize that investing in themselves and in other women is good for professional growth. For me as their leader, that is an invaluable experience.

TODAY’S POLICE OFFICER

by Sgt. John Roth, Public Information Officer, Glendale Police Department Women offer new perspectives and insights to a formerly exclusively male mindset, as well as offering the female members of the community the comfort of working with a fellow female when sensitive matters arise.

ake a moment; close your eyes and picture a police officer. What do you see? Does the officer have a certain build? Certain mannerisms? Gender?

In the not too distant past, it was common for law enforcement to be depicted as a predominantly male profession. In more recent years however, positions of police officers and law enforcement professionals are increasingly being filled by women.

This increased gender diversity provides police departments with a more well-rounded capability for serving their communities. Women offer new perspectives and insights to a formerly exclusively male mindset, as well as offering the female members of the community the comfort of working with a fellow female when sensitive matters arise.

These days, more and more women are lining up to take on the responsibilities of being a police officer. They stand shoulder to shoulder with their fellow officers, fueled by their competitive nature and their desire to help.

Some are mothers knowing they can take on whatever comes their way and

some are looking to earn the respect of wearing the uniform that so many have done before them. Regardless of what the spark is, women collectively want to go above and beyond to take care of those in need.

Women from all walks of life are emerging to serve their communities in all facets of the profession. The Glendale Police Department views diversity as an asset in today’s evolving society.

Our recruitment team is hard at work encouraging those who feel that they can make a difference, to join our growing team. The diversity that we exemplify as an organization, ensures that anyone and everyone within our community can feel a sense of compatibility when looking to us for assistance.

In the early 1970’s, the Glendale Police Department hired our first female Police Officers. Since then, females have become an integral part of the department. Serving in all roles of the department, women hold operational and leadership positions in patrol, investigation, administration, communications, detention and special operations Currently, the Glendale Police Department employs 132 females who

serve in sworn and non-sworn capacities. Forty-seven of the 132 females are sworn police officers, including seven who currently hold the rank of Sergeant or Lieutenant. In addition, almost half of the membership of the Glendale Police Youth Explorer Unit comprises female Explorers. The unit also includes two female Glendale Police officers who hold the role of advisors for the unit, serving as mentors and leaders for developing future public safety professionals.

The Glendale Police Department takes pride in ensuring that our workforce is made up of the most qualified men and women. We strive to improve recruitment for diversity and retention so that we can consistently improve on our relationship with the community that we serve. Twenty-four hours a day, there are men and women of the Glendale Police Department dedicated to providing our community and visitors with respect, dedication and compassion. From sworn to civilian and from recruits to volunteers, women of the Glendale Police Department are an integral part of the excellence that we aim to achieve.

AMBASSADOR OF

HOPE I

t was no different than any other dispatch, the lights made the room glow and the tones echoed against the walls. Amber jumped to her feet, slid on her shoes and moved quickly to the fire truck. She rubbed her eyes as she stepped up into the truck and started the engine. She could feel the vibrations under her feet and in the steering wheel. She turned around to ensure the firefighters were safely in their seats with the seatbelts on before she left the bay. The firefighters in the backseat were wearing their bunker gear ready to fight the house fire.

It was the middle of the night, so the streets were nearly empty. They could see the glow of the fire in the night sky as they turned down the street. She thought this was going to be just like any other house fire, but she was wrong. When they arrived on the scene they saw fire coming from every part of the house, shooting out of the windows and the roof.

This house had been burning for a long time. The crew moved quickly to put water on the flames. Then the words no one wanted to hear rang across the radios. There were people inside that house. Amber’s heart sank. Soon the area where the fire was burning went silent. The news of three children and their mother having perished in the fire struck Amber like a brick to the face.

Amber went home the next morning walking quickly in the door to hug her two daughters. Her little blonde beauties ages 7 and 8 ran up to her, arms open, yelling “mommy is home.” She squeezed them a little bit tighter that day.

After 15 years of working for the Glendale Fire Department, Amber had seen a lot. She had felt the pain of a family losing a loved one, she had fought fires, she had performed CPR on more people than she could possibly count. But today she felt she had to do something to make sure no family felt the grief of losing a loved one because there were no working smoke detectors in a home. She knew it was her mission to get the word out that smoke detectors save lives. Amber was compelled to make a difference.

She met the grandmothers of the children lost in the fire; they were starting a foundation to get the word out. Amber knew she had to do something to support these grieving women in their mission. So, she sprang into action using the already established Glendale Firefighter Charities to help her come up with a way to raise funds to assist the Sejata Smoke Alarm Foundation. A golf tournament, that was what she would do. Amber worked tirelessly to raise money and get sponsors. She was driven by the cause. With all of her dedication and

FALL 2018 • THE WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION

time she made it a huge success.

There were almost 100 players and multiple agencies represented. Amber was able to donate nearly $4,000 to the Sejata foundation with all of the money raised. She was humbled by what she had accomplished. As firefighters, we are not thought of as business people, we are public servants. But we are in business, we are in the customer-service business. Every day firefighters in Glendale get on their fire trucks and they deliver impeccable customer service to anyone and everyone who calls them. They arrive at the homes, offices, business and streets where the emergency is called in and offer help to those in need. Amber was used to being an ambassador of healing, but today she is an ambassador of hope.

Hope, that by spreading the word that working smoke detectors can save lives, that no other family would ever suffer a tragedy that this family had suffered. Amber’s story is one of many in the Glendale Fire Department — always looking to do more to help those in need. But Amber will always be remembered by the grandmothers of those children as being their hero.

For more information or to make a donation to the Sejata foundation you can email sejoursalr@gmail.com.

You can learn more about our 2018 Chair of the Board, Maria Brunner of OneAZ Credit Union, on page 15.

In 2019, Maria will be passing the gavel on to another distinguished woman, Dr. Lily DeBlieux, Superindent of Pendergast Elementary School District.

We asked Dr. DeBlieux to share her passion for serving the community: “Volunteerism is the backbone of our country and a way to enrich your life and that of others. As an example of this, I have always admired Marian Wright Edelman, Chair of the Children’s Defense Fund, and live by her words, ‘Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time.’

As the incoming Chair of the Glendale Chamber board, I stand on the shoulders of the great women leaders who have shared their passion and talent to improve the Glendale community through their service and support. I am grateful to them for their efforts and ready to take the helm to help make the three core Chamber principles of Business Connection, Community Impact and Economic Prosperity a reality.

In my role as Superintendent of the Pendergast School District serving 10,000 students on 12 campuses in the

cities of Avondale, Glendale and Phoenix, connections and partnerships are critical to our success. We are a strong economic engine that creates jobs and has purchasing power to help communities and individuals thrive. We look to the future for our students to be consumers, employers and employees and hope they will see that these connections lead to a stronger and healthier community.

When I speak to people about the importance of community involvement, I stress a mutually beneficial relationship where both the organization and the individuals share goals and passion to improve their businesses and quality of life. In the Pendergast District, the friendships and partnerships I have made are priceless in terms of connections, impact and prosperity, cornerstones of the Glendale Chamber’s opportunities.

Please join me in embracing not only the words, but investing in the actions shared by Dr. Edelman. Let us seize the opportunity to make a difference in our local community. We can steer the course of the future with our time, efforts and talents and can look with pride on our impact and positive influence.”

We are honored to have such amazing women to share in the success of the Glendale Chamber of Commerce.

OVER 500 MILLION PEOPLE ARE USING THEM…ARE YOU? Leveraging Facebook Groups for Your Business

by Ryan Caracciolo, President, Striventa, Co-Chair Glendale Chamber Marketing Committee

O

nline engagement is at a record high and now, more than ever, engaging your ideal customer in the right way is of the utmost importance. With ads and marketing campaigns bombarding your customers everywhere, every interaction that a potential customer has with your business is critical. To create an environment where you can provide value to your customers consistently, and connect with them directly, you should consider using Facebook groups.

Facebook groups offer an incredible opportunity to allow people interested in the same topic to connect, educate, ask questions and help each other. To give you an overview of the three types of groups and features, here are the charts below: Facebook groups are extremely important because they give you, as a business owner, the unique opportunity to connect with Facebook users engaged in a particular product, service or topic. Please remember you aren’t joining or starting a group to sell your

FALL 2018 • THE WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION

services or products but rather help answer questions and be a resource in that group so you can become your industry authority.

3 Ways to Leverage Facebook Groups Offer Value Without Selling - By creating a FB group, you as a business owner have the unique ability to offer value and education to your current customers, as well as future customers. The goal of establishing a Facebook group for your business should be to connect with your customers where they are. Being part of a group will allow users to feel like they are getting value from you and your company without being sold something.

Become the Problem Solver - Customers are looking for a person and/or company to trust and go to with their problems in hopes that a solution can be had. By being that authority they can go to, you will begin to solve their problems and build that trust. Additionally, this will give you insight into how your customers think, act and deal with their problems and solutions.

Gain Immediate Feedback - Thinking of launching a new service line or product in your business but want real feedback from your customers? Facebook groups allow you to post polls, questions and much more that will provide you with immediate feedback from your customers on. Transparency is key, and the more transparent you can be, the stronger connection you will have to your customers.

I encourage you to join a group to experience what they’re all about and gain ideas on how you can leverage a Facebook group for your business. If you’re a member of the Glendale Chamber, you can join their exclusive group by typing “Glendale Chamber Connects” in the search bar and sending a join request.

If you are interested in starting your own group, all you have to do is (1) sign in to your FB account, (2) click on the drop-down menu in the top right corner, and (3) click Create a Group. If you have questions on creating and/or administering a Facebook group, Striventa can help. You can reach me or a member of the Striventa team at 623-232-3334, or send me a direct email at Ryan@Striventa.com.

THE ART OF NETWORKING

Networking: the exchange of information or services among individuals, groups or institutions; specifically: the cultivation of productive relationships for employment or business — Merriam-Webster.

I

years businesses have trusted the Chamber to serve as their voice and have participated in the many networking opportunities they’ve provided. Although joining a Chamber is the perfect place to start, you don’t have to limit yourself to just one networking group.

The first step is finding an organization to join, might we suggest your local Chamber of Commerce? A Chamber of Commerce is an association that works to promote and protect the interests of the business community. For over 100

Once you’ve joined a group it’s important to actively engage if you want to grow your business network. We sat down with two Glendale Chamber members who have exemplified effective networking, and they agreed to share their key to success:

f you’re looking to grow your business or stay relevant in your community, building relationships is KEY. Regularly attending networking events will allow you to create meaningful relationships that will lead to referrals. By growing your network not only will you increase your business, but you will become a trusted resource in your community.

Q: What do you consider to be the greatest benefit to networking?

M: When I first started I was nervous to talk in front of a crowd and didn’t always have the confidence to approach new people. Being a part of the Glendale Chamber put me out of my comfort zone and I’m thankful for that because I no longer have those same fears. In this past year I have been able to make new connections and build relationships that have brought me so much personal satisfaction.

Y: One of the greatest benefits is meeting new people.

I’ve supported businesses that I would have never known about if it weren’t for the connections I’ve made through networking. Being a member of the Glendale Chamber has allowed me to use businesses that I know I can trust and recommend to others.

Q: Favorite Ice breaker?

M: Depends on the situation and the person’s personality, but starting with a question about them will typically spark a conversation.

Y: “So, what do you do?”

Q: What’s your best advice for people who are looking to build new business relationships?

M: Be proactive and purposeful, listen to what others have to say, be kind and approachable and always be professional. It’s important in any relationship to let the person know that you care about them and that goes for business relationships as well.

Y: Get to know people and their businesses, learn as much as you can from them. In general, we do business with people we like, know and trust. It’s important to know that it takes time to build that trust.

Other Tips from Mimi & Yolanda: •

Embrace everyone, if you’re in a group and see someone by themselves welcome them in to talk with you.

•

Try not to sit in the same place or with the same people every time.

•

Dress the part.

•

Practice your message so people clearly understand what you do.

AZPETVET ARROW ANIMAL HOSPITAL: CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF SERVICE

by Erin Neathery, Freelance Contributor

A

ll things considered, 1983 was something to behold. Motorola introduced the first mobile phone to the general public. Swatch watches became a thing. Sally Ride became the first American woman in space as a crew member of the space shuttle Challenger. The series finale of M.A.S.H. drew 125 million viewers. “Risky Business” was a smash hit.

On a local level, Terry Goddard became both the first Democratic mayor of Phoenix in 35 years, as well as the youngest mayor ever elected in Phoenix (age 36). The Phoenix Suns hit the playoffs for their sixth consecutive season. A group of local investors launched America West Airlines. And Arrow Animal Hospital opened its doors in Glendale.

From its humble beginnings as a two-doc shop, Arrow Animal Hospital grew to become a trusted Glendale community resource for families with pets. As new sister hospitals opened around Glendale and eventually other parts of the Valley, the group of locally-owned and -operated hospitals were given a brand name that connects them all – AZPetVet. Today, the AZPetVet family includes 21 ani-

mal hospitals around the Valley, open 7 days a week. Each location provides routine wellness to medical, dental, surgical and emergency services. Within the AZPetVet family, there are also veterinarians experienced in the treatment of chronic diseases, as well as for exotic animals, pocket pets, reptiles and more.

“We are so proud to have been a part of such an amazing community for 35 years. Because of our wonderful clients and our team members alike, we have been able to maintain and grow our practice,” said Dr. Wayne Anderson, a founding partner. “It’s very much a family.

We still have original clients who have stayed with us through several pet’s lifetimes. It says so much that they continue to trust us with caring for their beloved pets.”

AZPetVet has been a very supportive member of the community, promoting and sponsoring nonprofits like Gabriel’s Angels, which provides pet therapy to more than 14,000 at-risk children around Arizona; Grandpaw’s Pantry and Helping Hands for Homeless Hounds.

AZPetVet clients can save a lot of money over the years with exclusive programs like

FREE Vaccines for Life. For less than $100 investment, core vaccines for cats and dogs are free annually for the life of the pet, and program membership is easily transferred to any of the 21 AZPetVet locations around the Valley. Since unexpected emergencies can happen, another way they help pet parents is by offering generous no-interest payment plans.

Clearly, they have grown a lot since 1983. Today, construction on an expanded AZPetVet Arrow Animal Hospital is well underway - a facility that will more than double their current footprint and capacity, including expanded urgent care capabilities and a even a cat suite!

“We will be able to serve our clients and their wonderful pets more effectively. In addition to having more exam rooms, we’re also expanding our surgery and treatment facilities, and we will be adding grooming services as well,” said Dr. Stuart Sherrell. “Our Arrow location is still at the exact same intersection where we opened the doors all those years ago, and we’re beyond excited to open the doors to our new space this fall.”

CELEBRATING WOMEN IN BUSINESS

I

n everything from education to medicine and from finance to government along with many other sectors that keep Glendale’s community thriving, women are making a lasting impact.

That’s why in this issue of Glendale LIVING, we’re celebrating them. Although only a small sampling, the accomplished women you’ll meet on these pages are at the helm of some of our area’s most important businesses and organizations.

Studies consistently show the impact women make on our workforce. For example, did you know that for every 10 percent increase in women working, we see a 5 percent wage increase, according to the Harvard Business Review?

And while many of us know that women today earn more degrees in higher education than men, what’s not so known is that women have been doing this for many years.

According to global nonprofit organization Catalyst, which aims to accelerate progress for women through workplace inclusion, women have earned more bachelor’s degrees since 1982, more master’s degrees since 1987 and more doctorate degrees since 2006. Women currently comprise about 47 percent of the total workforce, but hold more than half of all management positions.

Still, with as much progress as women have made in business, company leadership around the world remains unbalanced, with women accounting for less than a quarter of management positions globally, according to consultant Rhett Power in a recent inc.com article. In fact, he cites data complied by the research group LedBetter, which reveals that of the 234 companies that own almost 2,000 of the world’s most recognized

consumer brands, only 14 of the companies had a female CEO, while nine of them had no woman at all serving in executive positions or on their boards. And the gender wage gap still exists, with women’s median weekly earnings for full-time work standing at $770 in 2017 compared to $941 for men, according to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research. In short, there is still much work to be done.

At the Glendale Chamber of Commerce, we are proud to support the careers and businesses of women leaders in our community. We have many engaged female members of our chamber, who cover a wide array of industries and

hold leading roles in their organizations. In fact, many of our recent board chairs have been women and women make up more than half of our board. As well, our Ambassador Committee, which is considered the “welcome arm” of the chamber, is all women and our Government Affairs Committee is predominately women.

According to the Harvard Business Review, “working women are a rising tide that lifts all boats.” We hope you’ll enjoy reading about some of the amazing women leaders lifting up all of us in Glendale today.

MEDICINE AND WOMEN

Excellent Career Paths and a Chance to Lead by Example

T

he administrator of Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Westgate Medical Center is encouraging businesswomen to “take a risk,” and she believes it is a great time for women to become leaders in health care.

“I feel like women have much more opportunity in leadership in health care because the nursing profession is predominantly female,” said Tina Brucato-Day, who has led St. Joseph’s Westgate since 2014. “As a nurse myself, I feel like it gives me an edge because I know what it’s like for the front-line staff.”

St. Joseph’s Westgate, located on a 35-acre campus near Loop 101 and Glendale Avenue, opened in 2014 and has four operating rooms, a 12-bed emergency room, 12 universal-care beds and a staff that has grown to 175 employees. The campus recently added a new medical office building and uses the most innovative materials to promote patient safety, patient satisfaction and medical efficiency.

St. Joseph’s Westgate is among a handful of facilities in the Valley with the robotic da Vinci surgical system. The da Vinci is the newest and most advanced model of the surgical robot and evidence of the facilities commitment to state-of-the-art medicine.

“I always knew I wanted to go into health care, and leadership just came naturally to me as I quickly became a charge nurse soon after becoming a nurse. Leadership positions then opened up for me, and I continued along that career path,” Brucato-Day recalled.

“I always knew I wanted to go into health care, and leadership just came naturally to me as I quickly became a charge nurse soon after becoming a nurse. Leadership positions then opened up for me, and I continued along that career path,” Brucato-Day recalled.

The former nurse advises women who are climbing the ladder to pursue their dreams and lead by example. “Be persistent and take risks you might think were impossible. The opportunities are endless. I share this with my teenage girls every day.”

Running a facility open 24/7 can be a challenge on an administrator’s personal life.

Brucato-Day said she finds life balance by spending as much quality time as she can with her two daughters and by hiking and exercising as often as she can. “My faith also grounds me as I prepare for the daily challenges we face in our work and personal life every day.”

Brucato-Day worked for Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in downtown Phoenix for 23 years before being promoted to her current position. She said she is grateful to have found her career path at Dignity Health.

“In my opinion, Dignity Health welcomes female leaders and supports their growth and advancement. I am proud to be part of such an amazing group of leaders, both women and men.”

HUMANA’S VICTORIA COLEY LEADS WELL-BEING EFFORTS IN ARIZONA W

hen most of us see or hear the word “wellness,” we think about physical health usually related to diet and exercise. But what if we took a broader view, one of well-being? Physical health would then become just one part of a greater whole in creating a balanced lifestyle.

And other aspects of well-being, such as financial health, would be just as critical and also linked to physical, emotional, mental and social well-being.

Employers benefit from addressing the broader definition of well-being.

Humana, a leading health and well-being company, is helping employers do just that.

Locally, the effort is led by Victoria Coley, Humana’s Employer Group vice president, who is based in Phoenix.

Victoria and her team help guide employers so they can in turn lead their employees on their well-being journey.

After all, employers can positively impact medical claims by supporting employees’ health.

“The benefits of providing a more comprehensive well-being strategy includes improved employee satisfaction and retention, positive culture, increased productivity, fewer absences, lower operating costs and better financial results for the employer,” Coley said.

Coley stressed that Humana’s success has in large part been credited

36

GLENDA LE LI VING V ING • SPECI A L SEC TION GLENDALE

to its Go365® program, which is available with Humana’s employee benefit plans or as a standalone offering.

The wellness and rewards program encourages each employee to achieve a healthier lifestyle by using behavioral economics, personalized goals and incentives to motivate positive changes in each employee’s life.

Through the Go365 program, employees are encouraged to participate in health and wellness initiatives and to take action to improve their well-being with health screenings, flu shots or step challenges. These activities can help them earn Bucks, which they can redeem for rewards like e-gift cards, apparel and fitness devices, charitable donations and discounts.

“Workplace wellness has become commonplace these days, and that’s a positive thing,” Coley said. “At Humana, our team strives to be the model and is excited to have been named the Healthiest Employer by the Phoenix Business Journal two years in a row and received the Platinum level for the second year through the Healthy Arizona Worksite program.”

Coley is a big part of that effort as she has an extensive background in the employee benefits industry with 19 years of experience, 17 years of that with Humana where she’s held multiple sales and leadership positions. Prior to joining Humana, Coley worked at Target Corporation as

an executive team leader in human resources. Coley’s efforts in the employee benefits industry from both the carrier and employer perspectives have given her a multifaceted view of employee benefit finance, strategy and communication.

In addition, Coley is a civic adviser and volunteer through professional boards, associations and charitable trusts such as Humana’s Women’s Network Resource Group, local and national associations of health underwriters, board of directors for the Glendale Chamber of Commerce, Southwest Human Development’s Gatsby Sports and various wellness councils. She’s a graduate of Valley Leadership Class 37 (2016) in which she lead a team project to increase literacy in the community by collecting, sorting and distributing 10,000 books through the Little Free Library project.

Hearts

LEADING WITH OUR

by Angela Hughey, Co-Founder and President, ONE Community

A

t ONE Community, we are committed to reshaping Arizona’s image through educating, empowering and connecting our diverse LGBTQ and allied communities on the benefits of inclusion and its direct impact on attracting and retaining top talent and businesses to ensure our state’s economic sustainability.

When my wife and I started ONE Community, we took a huge risk.

We bet our life’s savings that if we created a community of LGBTQ and allied, businesses and individuals that supported one another, we would create a stronger fabric – and that together – we would make a difference.

Unfortunately for us, the day after we launched our first website the stock market dropped 800 points.

But despite those brutal headwinds, we believed, and we knew that ONE Community was the right thing to do.

So, we buckled down and we led with our hearts, we told our stories, we had lots and lots of cups of coffee with

anyone who was brave enough to sit down with us.

It was an incredibly vulnerable time for us, but we believed we could find opportunity in adversity, and we knew how important it was to be patient and persistent and to educate the business community to partner with us and that we would find the path forward together.

We believed that our personal connections, our faith, our bonds of common humanity – the love we share for our friends, our chosen family – would give us the strength to be courageous and bold enough to commit to ideas that are bigger than we are.

And so, in 2014 when Senate Bill 1062 came to our state’s Capitol, instead of turning inward, we did what we do best, we turned outward … we had tough conversations about the very real negative impacts SB 1062 would bring to our state, we brought diverse constituencies together – the business community, the faith community, the LGBTQ and allied community to voice opposition.

FALL 2018 • THE WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION

We created our “open for business to everyone signs” to empower everyday Arizonans. Shop owners, businesses and organizations of all sizes proudly displayed the signs and showed our nation that SB 1062 did not represent the Arizona we believed in. Because – it is always the right time to do the right thing.

We – all of us, together – we were successful. The governor vetoed SB 1062, and ONE Community has never looked back.

We continue to advocate every day for equal treatment for all people.

And our UNITY Pledge – a public declaration to treat LGBTQ people fairly in employment, housing and public accommodations is now the largest equality pledge in our great nation.

We continue our work through our business inclusion summits, our faith outreach efforts, transgender awareness programs and so much more.

Our work is not always easy, but as we like to say – it’s always the right time to do the right thing.

We believed that our personal connections, our faith, our bonds of common humanity – the love we share for our friends, our chosen family – would give us the strength to be courageous and bold enough to commit to ideas that are bigger than we are.

A year or two after becoming an agent, I joined the Glendale Chamber of Commerce and started networking.

I realized if you don’t get out there and market yourself, you are not going to grow your business. I appreciate the support the chamber has provided me over the years. I am proud of being elected “Chairman” of the board in 2005. I continue to support the chamber and serve as a member of the Public Policy Committee and as treasurer

of the Political Action Committee.

I have always been active in civic endeavors from my children’s schools, the Glendale YMCA Board of Managers, the Kiwanis Club of Glendale, the Glendale Salvation Army Advisory Board, the Heart for the City Board to the City of Glendale boards and commissions.

It was a lot more than that! I worked hard for eight years to help my district (Barrel) and the entire city through some very tough economic times and had to make very hard decisions. I was honored to serve two years as vice mayor.

NEW GCC PRESIDENT TAKES HER LEAD FROM HER FATHER

I

by Dr. Teresa Leyba Ruiz, President, Glendale Community College

recently wrote in my blog about my father Juan Leyba, a powerful figure in my life and career. He passed away last year from ALS. He was my rock and my hero – and his passing has left a void for sure.

He lived fully and passionately and believed that with hard work you can accomplish anything. He always expected the best from his children. He instilled those character traits in me.

This has served me well in my journey, especially as the newest president at Glendale Community College.

GCC is the largest provider of higher education in the West Valley; a proud member of the Maricopa County Community College District. GCC was founded in 1965 and has helped more than 500,000 students reach their educational goals.

About 28,000 students call GCC home each year – whether they are seeking a transfer degree to a university, a two-year degree, a certificate to enter the workforce or simply their own pursuit of lifelong learning. From Kennedy Center award-winning plays and performances to nationally awarded guitar concerts – GCC offers the community as much as the students.

We are proud of our partnerships with automotive and health-care giants,

FALL 2018 • THE WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION

universities and local high schools.

I am excited to lead the college into the next phase of its growth.

But had it not been for my father, I wouldn’t be where I am today. When I was young, I began to fall in with the wrong crowd. I remember hanging out with friends he didn’t care for, friends who weren’t good for me, and my father quickly pulled me from the grasp of a much different future.

“Mija, you have to go to college so you never have to depend on someone else to take care of you,” he said.

It was the path he expected of all his children, and he worked hard to ensure we had the opportunities he and

my mom didn’t have. I am a proud, first-generation college student, just like more than 50 percent of GCC’s current students.

Because I’ve been there and walked a much different path in the past, I have

a heart for change. For me and many others, education is a path-changer. So many students today have challenges we can’t even begin to understand.

Some just need a meal or transportation or maybe just a little tutoring or sometimes an encouraging word. Despite these challenges they still come to class and work toward a better future; I am inspired by our students.

Much like my father, I simply cannot accept anything less than our best effort. Nationally, community colleges are struggling to help students complete their goals. Many of the “extras” are too expensive and colleges are strapped these days. Some say it’s outrageous and inconvenient to try to meet all our students’ needs – but is it, really?

What if someone would have found me to be an outrageous inconvenience? When I meet the incredible students who have overcome large challenges just to attend college, I often wonder if I just met a future U.S. president, a senator, a doctor, a teacher, an Olympian, a lawyer or the next leader of GCC. I firmly believe all students can learn and achieve great things with hard work and support.

I see the future walking the acres of GCC. We all should.

REBA’S VISION

by Reba Mason-Mikutowicz, Mason-Mikutowicz Founder, Reba’s Vision / Baskets of Hope

M

y life has been filled with ups and downs from being a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader for four seasons to battling an eating disorder that nearly took my life in 2000 and successfully overcoming it.

But I never knew that my first act would begin on Oct. 1, 2011 for both the good and the bad. I had gone in for my six-month mammogram. I had being given a 40th birthday present from mom of being tested to see if I carried the BRCA gene after knowing that my grandmother, my mom and her twin sister, two cousins and two other relatives had breast or ovarian cancer. I did carry the BRCA ER positive 2 gene.

The doctor called me and told me I needed to come in right away; I knew I had breast cancer. They first thought it was dci 1, but it wasn’t and it turned out that when I had a double mastectomy they found out I had stage 3c invasive ductal carcinoma.

My fight was long, and I knew this would forever change my life. Through three different rounds of chemo all 16 weeks and over 96 rounds of radiation, I never gave up. From having my port become infected and being replaced three times to finding more cancer and undergoing more surgery after surgery, I knew I had to fight like a girl!!

I had watched my mom, Marla Sue Mason, battle stage 4 metastatic

40

GLENDA LE LI VING V ING • SPECI A L SEC TION GLENDALE

breast cancer for over 18 years; it came back four times, but she never gave up. She volunteered at the center where she was receiving treatment and would tell everyone, “I don’t have a terminal illness ,I have a chronic illness that can be managed with treatment. And faith.” She lost her battle Feb. 24, 2014.

In September 2014 my life would begin its second act.

My doctors informed me that my cancer had metastasized to my bones and I was told I would live two to four years, maybe. Yes, I had my “why me?” pity party that night, but at 2 a.m. I woke up and had two visions. I had heard about three weeks earlier about a new type of mammogram 3d digital tomography and it was reducing calls back by 40 percent and catching breast cancer up to 18 months earlier than a normal 2d mammogram.

I also learned it cost a woman without insurance $111 to have this latest mammogram. I started writing down cost time this, times that and REBA’S VISION WAS BORN. I thought if we could raise $3,000, we could maybe save 25 women from what I and so many others have gone through.

I also want to help women currently in treatment feel beautiful by providing them with a Basket of Hope, which comes from their surrounding community filled with books, hats, makeup, jewelry, anything that might give them hope. I had been given such items while I was undergoing my treatment. With the help of Gina, my friend Eileen Joy, we were able to turn my place of work — at the time Texas Roadhouse Peoria—into Roadhouse Pink. The community got behind us

and helped us that month raise over $29,000. Little did I know that four years later were at nearly $200,000 with donations from strangers to such corporations as Walmart and our never-ending fundraising events.

I am so excited that 100 women so far have used the Pink Roadhouse Mammo Fund, and over 75 Hope Baskets have been handed out. During our fundraising events I have had the pleasure of meeting so many women living their second act. They are loving life, and it brings a smile to my face listening to them talking about their journey and hearing about how breast cancer changed their life for the good by giving them their second act.

My second act continues now by providing free wigs, bra, prosthetics, hats and scarves, anything a woman needs while in treatment for any form of cancer at no cost to them through generous donations from women who have been there and survived. To see the smile on the faces of women trying on a wig and feeling human once again to helping a young mother with children smile when she receives her basket filled with items from you and others who understand, then seeing her smile through the tears of pain, I know she will be stronger and will beat cancer.

My second act is still going strong from the amazing support of my husband Steve, who I met while battling cancer and married two years ago, to my family to countless friends, business owners and especially one woman, my amazing angel, my mom.

I’m ready to begin my third act now not letting a little thing called cancer beat me.

BUILDING NEW OPPORTUNITIES AT DESERT DIAMOND WEST VALLEY CASINO

was taught that giving back is a way of life and not just something we mark off on a checklist. Supporting others and doing what you can was a value my parents instilled in me, and it was just part of growing up with an Apache mother and O’odham father. That calling of giving back has been a guiding star, even if it has taken me to unexpected places like the Tohono O’odham Gaming Enterprise.

I studied public administration in college and never expected to find a career in the gaming industry. But with help from some wonderful mentors, I came to recognize how gaming is giving back to the Tohono O’odham Nation and to Arizona. And for nearly three years, Glendale and the West Valley has had a chance to experience those benefits firsthand thanks to the Desert Diamond West Valley Casino.

After building our interim facility with no offsets or public incentives, the Enterprise has created over 600 jobs and had hundreds of millions of dollars in positive economic impacts for the region. We’ve added a unique amenity to Glendale’s Sports and Entertainment District that is attracting thousands of visitors to the area each week. Working with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce and other organizations, we have forged sucFALL 2018 • THE WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION

cessful partnerships with local businesses and municipalities.

I’m especially proud of the work we are doing in the community, supporting vital organizations like Glendale Community College, the West Valley Foundation and the Glendale Firefighters Charities. Working together with our neighbors has always been a central part of our mission at the Tohono O’odham Gaming Enterprise.

I have never forgotten how fortunate I’ve been, and I try to pay it forward as a positive role model for young women.

I’ve had time to understand what it means to be a woman in business, especially in an industry that has traditionally been male dominated. The top two reminders that help me in everyday challenging situations are collaboration and similarities.

come obstacles that arise. Constructing a major casino facility at 95th and Northern avenues in 24 months takes a large amount of collaboration. That includes understanding we are the same, we all want our children to be safe, and we want prosperous communities. The Tohono O’odham Nation also wants safe and booming economies. What I have come to realize is that we are all the same and have to understand different perspectives to resolve issues and work together.

Currently the Enterprise is in the midst of an aggressive construction schedule to build our full-scale casino

by December 2019. The new, larger facility being built will include an expanded gaming floor, Class III slots, poker, blackjack, live bingo, five dining venues and more. Once it opens, the new full-scale casino will employ over 1,600 people and bring even greater economic impacts to Glendale and the West Valley.

We’re looking forward to continue working closely with the Glendale Chamber and other partners as we take this next big step in our economic development project.

SOUTHWEST GAS HAS STRONG COMMUNITY VALUES

by Lauren Patheal Valencia, Public Affairs Administrator, Southwest Gas

A

s an Arizona native, the desert is in my roots. I’ve known since birth that I wanted to attend Arizona State University and graduate a proud Sun Devil. My grandfather, a Glendale resident of nearly 40 years, was president of the Sun Devil Club and a diehard ASU sports fan who inspired within me a love of and passion for all things Sun Devil since childhood.

Deciding where to attend college was easy, but determining a career path after graduation was a little less certain.

In college, I changed my major a few different times – everything from political science to broadcast journalism – before deciding that my favorite classes (the ones that allowed me to read...a LOT) would yield a bachelor’s degree in English concentrating in literature. As one might imagine, liberal arts degrees weren’t exactly a hot commodity in the post-recession job market, but I was lucky to land an internship with the Arizona Chamber of Commerce, an industry where my love of politics, policy and communications converged beautifully.

sector again, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to work for individuals and organizations that share my values, support my vision and adhere to similar professional philosophies: work hard, give back and always deposit in tasks and relationships more than you withdraw from them. I’ve also had the exceptional honor of working with elected and appointed officials from across the country who embody the principal of service above self.

I was especially privileged for several years to serve as the assistant to Goodyear Mayor Georgia Lord, an outstanding public servant committed to developing her community into a better, more prosperous, condition than when she arrived. Working alongside Mayor Lord and learning from her gracious leadership style and humble

commitment to service was the experience of a lifetime.

Earlier this year, during my onboarding with Southwest Gas, I was delighted and impressed to learn about the company’s rich history of service, deep commitment to responsible growth and generous investment in the many communities in which we operate.

Through Fuel for Life, our philanthropic-giving program, and BLUE (Building Lives Up Everywhere), our employee-volunteer team, Southwest Gas encourages a culture of service and provides an excellent opportunity for employees to enrich the lives of others. It’s truly inspiring to be surrounded with a team of likeminded “Southwesters,” and I am proud to work for such an incredible company that shares my values.

EXCLUSIVE SURGERIES SOLUTIONS

Innovating the Surgical Experience

E

xclusive Surgeries Solutions (ESS) works for self-insured, self-directed and self-funded companies to pay surgeons directly for their surgical services.

When your Doctor tells you that you may need surgery and that he is writing a referral to a local surgeon, that event can seem overwhelming and daunting.

You trust your primary care physician, but is the referral they give you for a surgeon the superior choice for that specific surgery? Or did it just come from a list at their office? What about the infection rate of the location of the surgery? And what about the method of surgery and time in recovery?

How do you choose and know what to do? And what about the overall cost?

Trusting another person to repair a carpal tunnel, provide a knee replacement, or conduct a spine procedure is a major decision. ESS will help guide a patient through the process.

A

s we begin the 2018-19 school year, I wanted to share a unique and innovative program we will be featuring in the Pendergast District.

These days, schools have to compete with video games, tele-

vision, smartphones, Pokémon Go and much more. Students want lessons that are timely, relevant and challenging. Enter the Pendergast Puzzle Escape Room Bus. This exciting school bus has been transformed into a mobile puzzle escape room for the students.

The Puzzle is based on a oneroom schoolhouse in a school bus that has undergone a complete exterior and interior transformation. With faux brick walls, wood floors, antique design and authentic props, it is sure to spark conversation around the dinner table with grandparents who just may have memories of learning in this environment. As students and their teachers enter, they will be given the following information: “It’s the early 1900s and it’s time to go to school. You and your school chums would rather be at the swimming hole or fishing or anything else but be in school. The teacher is a strict old bird. She doesn't allow for any messing around. When she takes her morning break under the willow tree, you and your buddies figure it’s the perfect time to sneak out, but she’s got a bell on the door and will hear if you open it. You and your mates have to find another way out before she returns in 45 minutes, or you will be stuck here all day doing school work.”

Sound intriguing? I approached one of our partners, GCON (a general-contracting company), about the idea, and they signed on to design and build it. Students will use our curriculum including: critical-thinking skills, language arts, math and more to make learning come alive!

According to Tiffany Fisher of GCON, “The Pendergast Puzzle Escape Room Bus has been an amazing project for GCON to help sponsor. It is exciting to see an idea of Dr. DeBlieux’ come to reality with the help of our in-house designer and our construction team. Knowing that we helped create something fun, exciting and educational for the kids makes it all worth it. We hope it will be challenging for all grades from third to eighth grade and for the community at large.

The participants will experience teamwork at its best, along with problem-solving and time management. The best part is the puzzle can be changed out to a new puzzle with very little time and expense. GCON couldn’t be more excited to be sponsoring such a fun project for the students and the community as a wonderful learning activity.”

ARE FLIP-FLOPS GOOD FOR YOUR FEET?

by Janna Kroleski, D.P.M., Midwestern University Arizona College of Podiatric Medicine

A

rizona desert-dwellers are fortunate in being able to wear sandals year-round. While flip-flops are an easy and inexpensive choice for warm-weather footwear, the effects of wearing them long-term or exclusively can lead to a range of foot, knee and back problems, as well as certain fungal and bacterial infections.

Flip-flops offer little support, allowing your arches to collapse. This can lead to gait abnormalities that can cause tendinitis, heel pain and even sprained ankles if you trip.

Lastly, because flip-flops offer little protection, you’re also at greater risk for stubbed toes, puncture wounds and bacterial infections, sunburn, and the types of injuries that can crush your toes or feet.

Here are a few tips to help you wear flip-flops more safely and minimize your risk of injury: • Don’t run, hike or play sports while wearing flip-flops.

• Avoid driving while wearing flip-flops.

They can easily slip off the brake and gas pedals or even come off your foot and become lodged under the pedals.

• Avoid the inexpensive foam or plastic flip-flops.

• Look into purchasing “orthopedic” flip-flops that have a built-in arch

support and a stiffer sole that doesn’t allow the shoe to bend in half — many brands also offer stylish designs. Your podiatrist can help you decide which types of sandal work best for you.

Keep your feet moisturized during the summer to avoid cracks in the skin that could cause fungal infections.

Alternate between flip-flops and athletic shoes to provide your feet with a break.

PHX –

A CHAMPION OF WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP

by Heather Lissner, Public Information Manager, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport

O

ver the last century, many women have played key roles in aviation.

Yet, according to Women in Aviation International, the number of women working in the industry is still small compared to the number of men. The Federal Aviation Administration Aeronautical Center released a study from 2017 data that showed women pilots represent about 7 percent of the industry, and the percentage of women in the industry in nonpilot roles represents only 29 percent.

But Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, America’s Friendliest Airport®, is shattering those norms and is excelling in providing opportunities for women. In fact, three of the four top executives at PHX Sky Harbor are women. Sarah Demory, Deborah Ostreicher and Charlene Reynolds are assistant aviation directors. Working with Director of Aviation Services James E. Bennett, their efforts have been critical in the airport receiving high customer satisfaction rankings and the pursuit of a nearly $2 billion capital improvement program.

“It’s exciting to see PHX as a leader in advancing women in leadership positions,” said Kelly Kaysonepheth, president, Women’s Transportation Seminar (WTS) – Metropolitan Phoenix Chapter. “Unfortunately, across the board in transportation and specifically in aviation, the gender gap still very much exists. Regardless of the industry, having more women in leadership positions sets the tone for the society in which we want to live.”

Meet the Assistant Aviation Directors Sarah Demory has a strong background in aviation. She is responsible for the oversight of the Operations, Public Safety and Security, and Facilities and Services divisions at Phoenix Sky Harbor.

6 WAYS TO MAINTAIN A HEALTHY WEIGHT THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS

by Jonell Conn, NP, Javita

W

e all know the holiday season is full of food and treats. If you are like most people, you overindulge during this time and set a New Year’s resolution for weight loss or to get healthier.

What if we thought ahead and avoided gaining those pounds to begin with? Here are some simple ways to maintain a healthy weight through this holiday season.

Eat your fruits and veggies. Fresh fruits and vegetables are full of fiber and work to fill your stomach, giving you less room for pie. Another good option is to supplement with a fiber product to feel fuller faster such as Javita’s Fiber+ that contains plant sterols that have been FDA recognized to reduce cholesterol.

Exercise. To maintain good health 30 minutes of exercise five-seven days a week is recommended. When increasing calorie intake, it is essential to increase calorie output to avoid weight gain. So get moving! Go to the gym, take your dog or family for a walk, or take a stroll by yourself to destress.

Drink water. Our bodies function best when adequately hydrated. Skip the soda, juice and alcohol. Instead, go for water to stay hydrated without the sugars.

Be mindful of your food choices. It’s OK to not sample every dessert available. Get into the mindset of choosing healthy. You most certainly can have all the desserts you want, but you are choosing not to. When you give yourself the power to choose healthy, it feels good.

Watch your portion sizes. A great way to control your portion size is to use a smaller plate and avoid going back for seconds.

Supplements. There are plenty of weight-management products on the market to give you an edge. Javita has coffee, tea and fruit water designed for weight management. Let your health-care provider help you decide what is best for you.

4. And 5. Set goals and reward accordingly Set a goal for yourself and choose a reward you get once you meet that goal. Try to choose nonfood-related rewards like a massage, a new outfit or a movie. Whether your goal is to lose weight, lift a certain weight or exercise consistently for a period of time, knowing you have a new outfit, trip or new experience at the end can do wonders to get you there.

WEST VALLEY CHILD CRISIS CENTER ANNOUNCES NEW NAME AND FRESH LOOK

by Curtis Davis, Development Coordinator, West Valley Child Crisis Center/Hope Community Services

W

est Valley Child Crisis Center is now Hope Community Services.

Since 1986, West Valley Child Crisis Center (WVCCC) has provided a variety of direct services to children and families in the community through emergency shelter, foster care, adoption, training and education programs and recently added behavioral health services throughout Maricopa County.

“For over 32 years, we have helped children who have experienced severe abuse recover from trauma through a variety of evidenced-based programs that heal and inspire hope,” said Chief Executive Officer Kary Goitia. “While our original name and logo holds historical significance and a strong legacy, we knew it was time to re-focus to better match our values and our extensive service to the entire region. We wanted our name to reflect what we do, to connect the dots with the life-changing transformations that take place every day through our programs. Our new name and logo communicates a brighter future through community support, resulting in a more positive message to those we serve.”

The new name was announced and celebrated at the annual fundraiser luncheon, “RISE ABOVE” on May 2 to over 250 community supporters and leaders. The new brand includes the name change, updated logo, marketing materials and an enhanced mission statement. The website, Facebook and other social media accounts are in the process of being updated. The rebranding efforts were successful due to the hard work of OH Strategic Communications along with Southwest Gas, who donated funding.

HOPE COMMUNITY SERVICES looks forward to continuing to serve the children and families most in need in Maricopa County and collaborating with you to strengthen the community!
