Al Dea

Katya Laviolette is the Chief People Officer at 1Password. A fully remote organization since its inception in 2005, 1Password has undergone significant growth over the past few years as it’s moved up to the enterprise, and has had to adapt and evolve its people and talent strategy to meet the needs of an evolving business and market.

During our conversation, Katya spoke about some of the approaches she and the team have taken to strategically build a robust set of programs that provide intentional support and scaffolding to enable their workforce to be effective and engaged. Katya also spoke about the importance of leaders establishing clear guidelines and engaging in productive conflict, as well as how the company's remote-first environment has supplemented its focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB).
