In business, as in life, nothing happens in a vacuum. The solutions you and other leaders develop in response to challenges inevitably impact more people and departments than anticipated, no matter how well planned.
At CEO Institute II, you’ll explore the development of cross-functional awareness and aptitude. Reach beyond your area of expertise by involving cross-functional teams in your credit union’s planning process. Comprehensive sessions on change, negotiation, business process redesign, effective group study and performance, and the art of giving constructive feedback will transform the way you elicit support and implement change.
You’ll cover the following topics in depth:
- Exploring the intense process of change
- Negotiating for resources, business process redesign, building alliances and handling complex issues
- How organizational change affects every area of your credit union
- New techniques to examine your organization’s ability to formulate, implement and guide change
- Testing new strategies for organizational change and business processes
- Human resources—your most valuable asset
Following CEO Institute II, you’ll apply what you learned about change management to your credit union in a hands-on, post segment assignment.

CEO Institute really helped me in my path to being named CEO at BayPort Credit Union. It offers the quality education needed to successfully develop the skills credit union CEOs and leaders need—from strategic planning to operational change to leadership skills. Plus, you learn directly from the professors at three of the top business schools in the country. It was also great working and networking with smart, dynamic credit union leaders; I just finished my last year, and we’ve already bounced ideas and information off each other.
