Take Your Seat at the Roundtable
In the credit union movement, the notion that we are stronger together is not just an afterthought to business. It’s a core value that drives every decision and interaction with peers, even those who would be considered competition in any other industry. This is the “the collaborative spirit,” and it makes better leaders and helps deliver better products and services that members rely on.
CrossState shares your collaborative spirit, and we are ready to put you in the spotlight at CrossState Connect Annual Convention! Don’t miss this opportunity to gather with fellow credit union professionals and discuss the roadblocks and solutions that can strengthen our communities.
Meeting of the Minds
This year, in addition to breakout and general sessions, we will facilitate Peer Roundtables that address the unique challenges facing various areas of credit unions. Whether you are a CEO or in compliance, HR, IT/operations, or marketing, all will have a space to connect with peers, share experiences, and exchange ideas that drive progress.
The roundtables are scheduled for the last day of Connect, May 21, at 9 a.m., enabling attendees to reflect and connect before heading home. Come ready for an open exchange of stories and strategies on situations that credit unions of all sizes navigate every day! Your voice matters, and it’s your contributions that allow our credit unions to make a positive impact on our communities.
The Power of Conversation
The value of peer discussion cannot be overstated. Such conversations can highlight both the vision of strong leaders within our membership and the common challenges you face.
Sometimes the only thing standing between a problem and a solution is space. An objective perspective from someone with similar experiences can make all the difference in identifying new angles and insights. In turn, everyone may walk away with greater confidence to help move their credit unions forward.
Connect Before Convention
If you’re eager to be part of a bigger conversation, join one of our free Peer Groups. Held virtually once a quarter, each offers an outlet to discuss relevant and timely topics.
We have seen amazing things come from collaboration within these groups and are excited to offer more opportunities for connection in 2026!
