A Direct Line Blog

By Donya Parrish, MCU VP- Risk Management

While talking to credit unions and board members across the state, there are a couple of consistent themes that emerge. One is a need for assistance with succession planning (both for your management team and for the board itself) and another is ensuring you are compensating your CEO at a competitive level. Those topics are paired with a desire for continuing education and convenient training in a new virtual series we are bringing you!

Starting in November, we have Yvonne Evers (SUCCESSIONapp, LLC) bringing you a robust training package – “The PEAK Credit Union Board Performance Directors Series.”

We’ll start with an informational webinar on November 14 at 2:00 p.m. MST to learn how you can bring your board’s performance to the PEAK.

  1. Accept Nothing Less Than Trust and Respect
