Why Faith Should Guide Business Principles - Bob Schmid

from Work is Calling · host Wayne Kuna

What happens when you sense God's calling, not to ministry but to the boardroom? In this episode, Wayne Kuna interviews Bob Schmid, a corporate leader in credit risk management who sees his work as worship. Bob opens up about being his work in the secular marketplace, why he traded a pursuit of an MDiv for an MBA, and how his faith has shaped everything from financial roles at global leaders such as BP and NextEra Energy, to starting an adoption grant nonprofit with his wife.With a life verse from Micah 6:8 tattooed on his arm, Bob’s story is a vivid example that faith-filled excellence, not just good intentions, can define Christian leadership in any field. Whether you’re considering a major career shift, facing leadership tension, or just wondering how to live your faith at work without alienating others, this episode will hopefully serve as a strong reminder to do your job well while pursuing God’s will in your life.
