SouthState’s John Corbett is among the most respected CEOs in the banking industry today. In this discussion with Travillian’s Head of Banking & Fintech, Brian Love and GenOpp Capital Management’s CIO, Joe Fenech, Corbett recounts the story of his career, growing a De Novo community bank in central Florida two decades ago to the southeast regional force that SouthState Bank is today. Along the way, we gain insight into a managerial style that prioritizes innovative and creative thinking, teamwork, the importance of culture, the value of humility, “thinking big” while “acting small” and how to manage through a crisis and create opportunity, a particularly relevant topic in the current environment.
