Developing Personal Leadership Styles Starts Here

Regardless of current positions, credit union leaders of all ranks will be developing their personal leadership styles at the MCUL & Affiliates 2017 Intentional CU Leadership workshop this fall. The unique opportunity will focus on moving away from "day-to-day" routines and shifting to becoming more thoughtful and purposeful serving in leadership roles.

Two leadership experts will work with attendees the evening of Oct. 17 and throughout the day on Oct. 18 in a somewhat unusual setting—the Frankenmuth Brewery. Here participants will meet peers from throughout the state, share goals and build contacts with one another, as well as hear 20-minute talks from both presenters and then decide who to follow for the balance of the event.

Holly Duckworth will be addressing "Mindful Leadership and More," while Pete Honsberger will inspire attendees on "How to be a Buffalo and Charge into the Storm." Attendees at last year's Intentional CU Leadership event shared that they "liked having the ability to choose one area to focus on and still hear a summary of each topic" and that they "really liked the mini sessions and then getting to choose which one to attend."

Hotel rooms are being held at negotiated rates at the SpringHill Suites and Fairfield Inn Marriott hotels, both within walking distance of the brewery venue. Attendees are encouraged to secure accommodations soon at these or any other area hotels, as accommodations are expected to become limited in October.
