One of Vega s biggest attributes is her open door management style. What s more, she says, The Albuquerque Retail Banking group has been recognized as one of the best-performing retail groups in the entire Wells Fargo system. Recently, Vega was selected from 1,800 employees to participate in the Leadership New Mexico class of 2000-2001. This is a great honor, as each company can only nominate one person per class. Leadership New Mexico seeks out community leaders and educates them about issues impacting our state.
Members share one common goal to make New Mexico a great place to live and work.
There are about 150 alumni, with approximately 40 members in each year's class. Says Vega , I have the opportunity to really deepen my knowledge of the challenges and opportunities facing our state and, as a result, this helps me understand what I can do to bring about positive changes to our communities. Plus, the opportunities to network and share ideas with other current and emerging leaders is absolutely phenomenal. Vega also participates regularly in community philanthropy, including Association of Commerce and Industry events, the March of Dimes, the Eisenhower Parent Teacher Association, and the Certified Disaster Recovery Planners. She strongly encourages Wells Fargo s employees to participate in community events along with her.
