Meet Aija Stapars and Sergio Razo

This week I'm thrilled to welcome two new senior leaders to the LCS team. Aija (pronounced like Hi ya...I ya!) Stapars is our new Chief People Culture Officer and Sergio (pronounced s-ER-j-ee-oh) Razo, Chief Technology Officer. 

We hear what attracted them to our organization, what they do for down time and a greeting to their new colleagues in their native languages of Latvian and Spanish. 

Then it's a friendly game of office chair shuffle board!



Please make recommendations of colleagues to be highlighted in the future, and leave a comment below for Aija and Sergio.

    Welcome to the Lutheran Family. I look forward to learning more about you, and for the opportunity to partner in service to Refugees/Immigrants and our local community. The game was as fun for me watching, especially the extra umph from them awesome leg kicks. I knew after hearing about long walks who I was betting on. Great interview, thanks for sharing.

Normally I'm asking the questions in a David's Corner conversation, but I was delighted to have the tables turned on me when Maggi Gerhard, HR Generalist, took the reigns of the interview. (Winning a contest put her in the driver's seat!) We cover a wide range of topics from how to create a unified organization to the more humbling revelation of my worst fashion mistake. Our conversation is in two parts. Grab some coffee and join me in the hot seat!
