    This is an incredible revelation about leadership, mental health and self-care from Cleveland Landheart, the location general manager of our Gulf Freeway store in Houston. Thank you for sharing Cleveland, we're fortunate to learn alongside our associates as they gain valuable experience in CarMax's development programs! https://lnkd.in/d3JNAPa5

    Location General Manager at CarMax

    I had an amazing opportunity to participate in a next level develop program at my company. Which provides a platform to learn from the wisdom and experience of our Executive Leaders at CarMax. I acquired many takeaways and moments of clarity, but one in particular was a paradigm shift for me. My group was asked what's the most important job of a leader. As you may suspect I was eager to share my perspective on leadership and get feedback on my thoughts. However, I learned in the moment that I couldn't have more incorrect 😳. My most profound takeaway of the day was the importance of self-care (Mental Health). Chris Sloan shared how it's nearly impossible to offer your best to the people around you if you're not at your best. Having a keen awareness of your mental health status and being intentional regarding steps you take to stay mentally healthy is your most important job 🤯. In nearly 20 years of Management, I'd never heard leadership explained in such a way. Hopefully, this message resonates with you the way it did with me and pushes you to take the time necessary to reset, be aware of your mental health status, and be at your best! I can assure you the people that mean the most to you personally and professionally will appreciate it and benefit greatly. Chris Sloan

    Thanks to Amy and all of our associates who help us celebrate Pride month and foster a sense of belonging for our LGBTQ+ associates year-round! 🌈

    Happy #Pride - I've loved seeing coworkers repping equality in calls and in person this week. I see your hat. Your background. Your rainbow fingernails and shoelaces. I see CarMax offering pride backgrounds in Teams. And I don't take them for granted for a second. I often consider myself invisible in the LGBTQ+ community; I'm a cis woman married to a man. But make no mistake, when I'm in a room - the board room, the bathroom, the meeting room - I'm still a human being who identifies as bi. I am grateful for this month where it feels extra safe to be who I am, when I see my friends even more comfortable in their own lives. Here's to pride in June, and pride every day. If you're participating this month, thank you.

    Check out Ashwin’s story as we celebrate Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage month. We appreciate your leadership at CarMax Ashwin Kopparthi! “I am proud of my heritage. Being Asian American is not just about my individual story, but about being part of a vibrant tapestry of cultures, traditions, and dreams. And in that realization, I find profound joy and purpose in amplifying the voices of others who can shape a more understanding society. The people I get to work with each day are also part of my family and allow me the opportunity to celebrate my identity.” -Ashwin Kopparthi, RVPGM Philadelphia Region #AAPIHeritageMonth #DiversityandInclusion

Using LevelAccess’s technology, we test our carmax.com web content to ensure it meets accessibility standards and can be experienced by all of our customers. Thank you for helping us lead this inclusive effort Courtney Allison B., Robertson Odom, Renwick Oden, and Benjamin Gibson!

    Today is #GAAD Global Accessibility Awareness Day! It’s going to be a busy day as I present to Level Access customers. These customers are demonstrating their commitment to accessibility and disability inclusion and I’m honored to be their #keynote #speaker on this important day. 1️⃣ The day kicks off with Huntington National Bank as I speak about the spectrum of disabilities, giving special focus to non-apparent (#hiddendisabilities) including #chronicpain & neurodiversity and how powerful every effort and contribution towards #disabilityinclusion is. 2️⃣ Next I’ll be joining Thomas Foley from National Disability Institute as we speak to Guardian Life. In this talk I’ll be focusing bringing #awareness to #neurodiversity and #autism. I hope to help redefine the image of #autismspectrumdisorder from what is often portrayed in the #media and movies. I’ll also be highlighting how amazing and talented the autism community is why it’s so important to include us in your #workforce. 3️⃣ Closing out the day with CarMax and Edmunds team where I get to share some of my personal story navigating #disibility and talk about 🤖 #robots #ai #innovation 🦾and the Future of Accessibility. I’ll be sharing some thought-provoking emerging #technology that I’m excited about. Special thanks to Courtney Allison B., Benjamin Gibson, Renwick Oden, Robertson Odom Cory Jankowitz, Courtney Hans, Rene Carnahan, Parampreet Singh, CPWA, Jackie Roth and everyone the helped coordinate and support todays events! #ramsayhuntsyndrome #elhersdanlossyndrome #eds #rhs #postviralfatiguesyndrome #menieresdisease #vestibular
