Culture
Focus on going above
At BOK Financial Corporation Group our teams meet each opportunity with a focus on going above, whether that's helping a client or working with our colleagues. That means we don't shy away from the big challenges or overlook even the smallest details.
We are tenacious in the pursuit of getting things done right. We are ambitious and play to win … but believe that how we win is just as important. We work collaboratively with one another and within our communities. And, we are inspired, helping our clients imagine and achieve their best possible futures.
For more than a century, we've been focused on building long-term relationships with our clients. And we're equally focused on being a great place to build careers.
Our focus on attracting and retaining the finest talent in the industry drives our commitment to our employees. We measure employee engagement, sentiment, inclusion and empowerment within our organization with an eye toward continual improvement. We believe that a highly engaged and empowered workforce, operating in an inclusive environment, is a winning solution and a key differentiator that enables our company to achieve its long-term strategic goals.

You belong in our story
The ability to bring your authentic self to work. Being valued for your differences rather than wanting to hide them. A culture of not just accepting diverse values, opinions, experience and needs — but welcoming them.
INCLUSION
Inclusion is essential to our mission as a bank and a core leadership competency. Our vision is to continually foster and support the principles and values of our company by promoting an environment that is inclusive of the diverse values, opinions, experience, culture, and needs of our employees, clients, and communities.
It takes time, effort, and commitment at all levels to develop a culture rich in diversity and inclusion. We understand that inclusive practices lead to higher levels of engagement, performance, productivity, and positive business results. We believe in continuous organizational improvement, empowering our employees to do what is right, and embracing collaboration.
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
We are dedicated to investing in employee engagement at every level of the organization. Engaged employees implement great ideas to improve the organization, feel empowered to make decisions, and focus on open and effective communication, which in turn has an impact on the company’s culture and values.
“I am a believer in employee engagement because I have been able to see a noticeable impact in performance from those groups who embrace the key principles of the process. I don’t think one size fits all and there should not be a prescriptive approach, but when we are sincerely engaged and managing to those broad objectives, there is a differentiated level of both performance and the employee experience.” – Stacy Kymes, Executive Vice President, Corporate Banking
