It’s hard to describe how much I have learned & taken away from the Association Leadership Institute. Skills & tactics that will help me for many years to come, both professionally and personally. Each workshop taught me something about myself and helped to identify opportunities for improvement.

We learned to discover and communicate the ‘why’, how to identify and diffuse roadblocks, and create ways to inspire and empower our teams in the face of change, while discovering more about ourselves and our ability to contribute to the greater good, to instill hope in a future and for leadership in the credit union movement.
