CEO Succession Planning - Originally broadcast on 10/10/2007
Aiming for the Success in Succession Planning
According to CUNA’s Environmental Scan there will be an exodus of ¼ of all credit union CEOs over the next 5 years and 50% of them will be gone by 2013. What will your plan be for replacement?
NCUA Letter no. 161 asks credit unions, as one of 7 internal control steps, to have a detailed written succession plan in place. This plan should address the CEO and other senior management positions. Succession plans are not only required but are a necessity as well. Assets are increasing, credit unions are becoming more sophisticated, and complex and management is aging.
This program will help credit union directors and management understand how to put this plan together and will address:
-
The succession planning process
- Emergency and long-term succession
- Qualifying candidates

- Staff assessment
- Staff development
- Writing the plan
