Courtney Young<\/span><\/h1>\n

Director on the People Team<\/span><\/h2>\n

Joined Avant in 2018<\/span><\/h2>\n

What\u2019s it like to work @Avant? We asked Courtney for her take on our culture, and here\u2019s what she said:<\/h3>\n

1. How would you describe Avant\u2019s culture?<\/h3>\n

\"Courtney<\/a>We\u2019re incredibly team-oriented and collaborative\u2013truly. The people here are some of the smartest I’ve ever worked with, but what struck me in my first week (coming from a very different environment) was how uncompetitive it felt. No ego, no sharp elbows. The vibe is more like, “I’m going to do my best because that’s my own standard\u2013and I want to support you to be successful too, because we\u2019re in this together.\u201d
\nPeople genuinely want to help you out\u2013teach you, support you, help you grow, and cheer you on. That stuck with me early on, and it’s been consistently true throughout my tenure here. It\u2019s one of the (many) reasons I love working here.<\/p>\n

2. Why are you happy\/successful here?<\/b><\/h3>\n

That’s an easy answer: because I get to learn every single day. I find our work so fascinating and motivating, and I love that I\u2019m trusted with new tasks, responsibilities, and initiatives\u2014even without decades of experience in that exact area. I get to stretch, figure things out, and tap into the insanely smart people around me. I keep getting challenged in ways that I never expected, and I love it!<\/p>\n

My love of learning is part of who I am, but it also reflects how we approach and solve problems. We don\u2019t say “I don’t know how to do it, so someone else should.” It\u2019s more like, “I don’t know how to do it, so who can help me learn?” Avant is full of people who are curious, generous with their knowledge, and excited to grow\u2013and they want you to grow right alongside them. That’s just the vibe here, and it suits me well.<\/p>\n

3. What\u2019s something Avant is really good at? What\u2019s something you\u2019d like to see us get better at?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Something we’re really good at: when we decide to prioritize something, we mobilize. Quickly. We pull in the right people or teams, and because we\u2019re stacked with doers and thinkers and go-getters, we keep moving\u2013even as roadblocks naturally come up and we need to pivot, we stay focused and get it done. A great example of this is how quickly we were able to get all of our teams fully operational during the pandemic, when we had never worked fully remotely before. People were just so willing to jump in. It was one of those moments that really showed who we are as a company.<\/p>\n

Of course there is always room for continuous improvement in almost every area. Something we have room to grow is efficiency. We have a complex environment\u2014some Avantees in person, some remote, everyone juggling different timelines and competing priorities. And with that I wonder: are we moving as efficiently as we could? Are we connecting people in the ways they need or expect? Is anyone unintentionally left out of the loop? How do we ensure we\u2019re all moving together? I think about it a lot. Not because I think we\u2019re doing it \u201cwrong\u201d but because I think we can get better\u2013it is important to me that our people feel aligned, supported, and connected as we continue to evolve as a company.<\/p>\n

4. If you were to describe who you are and not mention your work at all, what would you say?<\/b><\/h3>\n

I\u2019d probably describe myself as eclectic\u2013not so much in the fashion or design sense, but in experience that I am drawn to. I\u2019m curious, a bit of a dabbler, and I love a good hodgepodge of interests. I think it\u2019s because I grew up in a small town, and didn’t have a ton of exposure to different cultures or ideas, so now I\u2019m drawn to learning from other people\u2019s perspectives\u2013 history or culture or stories, all of it. I\u2019m a people person. I love interacting with people, socializing, and just being friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh and I should definitely say I’m also a \u201cboy mom\u201d, which is something I never pictured for myself but it somehow suits me. My hope is that I raise two kind, curious boys who treat people well and hopefully go on to make the world a little better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. <\/b>What\u2019s your favorite thing about the way your specific job role works on your team?<\/b><\/h3>\n

I don’t really think of myself as “the Director of the People Team.\u201d Of course, I so appreciate having the opportunity to lead, but for me, it\u2019s really about the awesome team\u2014and there are so many super smart, dedicated people on this team. Everybody shows up and gives their best in some really challenging situations, and we do a great job. The fact that I get to be part of it is incredibly rewarding for me. I take a lot of pride in what we’re able to accomplish. I just find it really cool that I get to witness that every day, regardless of what role I have. Being close to the work, to see all these smart people in action, doing their best on a daily basis\u2026it\u2019s what excites me and keeps me motivated.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?<\/b><\/h3>\n

When I was younger, I wanted to be a chef. When I was like 8 years old, I learned how to cook alongside my grandmother, and once I found out that that could be a profession, I thought that it was a perfect mix of creativity and skill. I was fascinated by cooking shows on the Food Network. I didn’t become a chef, obviously, but cooking has stayed with me as my creative outlet. You\u2019ll rarely catch me following a recipe because I mostly cook from inspiration based on whatever ingredients I have in my fridge or panty. It feels like a good way to exercise a different part of my brain, and I enjoy it. I love seeing my family and friends enjoy what I make.<\/span><\/p>\n
