Issue 3. 2022 21 Lydia Levin, SVP, Channel Strategy at Zions Bank in Salt Lake City, was one of 11 recipients of the American Bankers Association’s inaugural Emerging Leader Awards, honoring the next generation of bank leaders for their high standards of achievement and service to the industry and their communities. “Banking provides the great opportunity to meet, work with, and serve people from all segments of society,” said Levin. “I love the focus that we have on improving the communities where we live and work.” Levin served on the UBA Emerging Bank Leaders Board from 2019-2022, and she is still active in the group’s Mentoring Committee. Asked why she is passionate about banking, Levin said, “I work with intelligent, passionate, and talented people. This makes it rewarding and fun. My peers are professionals, genuinely interested in improving the financial condition of our customers through delivering the bank’s suite of products and services, whether they work in operations, compliance, or manage branches and client relationships.” Her best piece of advice to other bankers or those looking to join the industry? “To plan, but always be f lexible and open to new challenges and opportunities.” The complete list of 2022 ABA Emerging Leader Awards Winners can be found on ABA.com.
