It’s not unusual to find Unruh meeting with employees one-on-one via walks outside of the traditional office environment. That’s because she values the opportunity to learn and grow from the organization’s up-and-comers while also offering herself for mentorship opportunities. It is through this approach that she is finding success in transforming Charter’s legacy Small Business and Enterprise groups into the singular, revamped Spectrum Business unit.
Is there a movie, show, song or book you wish you had created? “Friends”—not just because it became a massive hit, but because it brought people together. Thursday nights at 8 p.m. were a ritual.

If you could bring one female historical figure into today’s corporate world, who do you think would thrive and why? I’d bring Amelia Earhart into today’s corporate world as a reminder that progress belongs to the daring. She faced uncertainty with excitement, turning challenges into opportunities for discovery. Fearless, inventive, and relentlessly determined, she championed women’s potential long before it was popular. Imagine that daring spirit in more companies today—pushing boundaries, challenging limits, and charting bold new paths.
