Celebrating a Decade of Growth at Heartland Bank!
Julie Kleen joined Heartland Bank in 2010 as a Retail Teller and has since built a successful career in the Learning & Development department, now serving as a Performance & Learning Analyst. Starting with a recommendation from her father, a long-time customer and financial professional, Julie quickly found a passion for employee development. She credits a supportive culture – including mentorship from leaders like her manager, Laureen – and resources like the Job Shadow program and LinkedIn Learning for her growth.

Julie now enjoys facilitating new hire orientation and collaborating across departments, fostering a bank-wide commitment to continuous learning. She encourages colleagues to embrace change and utilize available opportunities for professional development.
