Parcl Chief People, Purpose & Culture Officer Donna Scarola, said, “ I joined Parcl because I wanted to join an organization whose purpose aligned to my own, and the opportunity to bring value to an industry that is shaping its possibility. While Culture, Purpose, and People can be the determinants that make a place to work great, they are also simultaneously influenced by the market/industry in which they operate. In Web3, blockchain, and crypto, the market is evolving rapidly. This is a compelling opportunity for both myself and the Parcl team to design a new type of organization that leads with purpose and culture first– shaping both our internal and external worlds with people at the center. Some of the most defining aspects of our culture are the commitments to DEI, growth mindset, and democratization in the markets in which we operate.”

Currently, she is an adjunct instructor at New York University in the Human Capital and Analytics Master's program, where she teaches Agile Methods and Organizations. The thread throughher career is the intersection between technology, people, and behavioral science to answer the question: what drives amazing people to do outstanding work?
