Next Top CU Exec Being Sought
CU Journal
MADISON, Wis.-CUES has partnered with British Columbia-based Currency Marketin to create what it is calling the “Next Top Credit Union Exec” program for emerging leaders. It will be modeled after Currency’s “Young & Free” program and will search emerging leaders under age 35 who will apply by creating a 60-second video about themselves and a project they are working on, a project they are planning, or an idea they have for their credit union. All videos will be on display at www.NextTopCreditUnionExec.com.
Interested participants should apply by June 1. Based on votes, the applicant in each region who receives the most votes will become a regional finalist and will receive a prize package valued at $5,000. The six regional finalists will present on the progress of their project, program or idea at CUES’ CEO/Executive Team Network in Dallas, Nov. 7-10, 2010. The finalist who scores the highest via a combination of a judging panel, audience and online votes will receive the title Next Top Credit Union Exec and an educational package valued at $20,000.
