Twenty-five years ago, Laurel Day was a college graduate with a useless degree who felt called to move to Utah and work at Deseret Book. When a friend told her about a part-time position as an event specialist with Deseret Book, she applied for and got the job. Opportunity followed opportunity until she came to work under Sheri Dew, who became her mentor. Now president of Deseret Book, Laurel looks back on the unique experiences that helped prepare her to innovate a communication company during a difficult transition. In this engaging episode of “Called to Create: an LDSPMA Podcast” with host Connie Sokol, Laurel describes the need to gather Israel by creating content that represents the diverse voices and testimonies of members around the world.
