legal firm, at a time when he
wanted to be part of a non-profit
with a community purpose.
For Balasubramanian, a
supportive workplace is in Tarion’s
DNA, and since becoming CEO
in 2020, he has made protecting
its people and culture a focus
of his leadership, in part by
holding virtual town halls
every three weeks. “I’m open to
answer any question from any
employee, and sometimes we
get some really tough ones,” says
Balasubramanian.
“So, direct conversation
and direct accountability. My
commitment is, I can’t promise
that we will do what you want, but
I can promise we’ll talk about it,
and if we won’t do it, I’ll tell you
why. That’s how you build and
maintain a culture and how you
get to call yourself a values-driven
organization.”
