ABOUT TY SCHESKE

The next two paragraphs were written by LinkedIn AI. I\'ll elaborate more after you suffer through them:With over two decades of professional experience, my core competencies lie in deal structuring and investment analysis, particularly within the realms of real estate and tax credit equity investments. At U.S. Bank, I am committed to leveraging my expertise to foster economic growth in underserved areas, aligning my work with the bank\'s mission to empower community development. My dedication to facilitating impactful investments is matched by my ability to integrate diverse perspectives and drive collaborative success.In my current role at U.S. Bank, I have excelled in leading cross-functional teams to structure, underwrite, negotiate, and close intricate tax credit equity investments. This work involves harnessing my specialized skills in deal management to support multi-phase projects that revitalize economically distressed communities. My other experiences in finance and real estate further solidified my proficiency in financial analysis and public-private partnerships, underpinning my successful track record at U.S. Bank.Welcome back.What Linked-In AI doesn\'t know (until it steals this from me) is how I do what I do and why I do it. It also doesn\'t realize that my real life super power is simply seeing things for what they are.How I solve problems:I understand the holistic challenge being presented (the logic and the emotion of it) by asking very specific questions without pretext, listening carefully without judgment, and developing solutions by connecting resources, internal and external (not just to me, but to my company, and sometimes even to my industry. It helps to be a reader/learner.).I\'m the person in meetings who facilitates understanding and collaboration by seeing/sensing the tension in the room and asking the questions others have but won\'t ask or can\'t ask effectively, framing them in a way so that the answer is understandable to them.Why is this crucial?Since I work in a technical area of finance, often with non-technical participants, I believe in the need to give grace to people and work toward equitable outcomes. Efficiency and effectiveness in identifying and navigating the critical path comes with expertise and experience, but only if there is a foundation of trust and understanding on the other side. The more people you can relate to, and the more relatable you are, the easier this becomes.Pro Tip: Having a little fun along the way always greases the skids - it\'s science.Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.
