Recap from the 2016 Manitoba Credit Union Convention

CUYLM was granted an amazing opportunity to facilitate one of the breakout sessions at this year’s convention. Our Committee Chair Emma Lafreniere and Co-Chair Jody McPherson along with Jay Murray, CEO Mid-Atlantic Corporate Federal Credit Union led the discussions of Millennials: Reshaping the Workforce to a group of Executive and Board Members of our Manitoba credit unions.

It is predicted that, by 2025, three out of every four workers globally will be Millennials. Credit unions will need to build ways to identify talent, as well as encourage and promote our future leaders. After all, the young credit union professionals of today are our future leaders of tomorrow.

We were excited to also represent CUYLM in the annual trade show. We encouraged our seasoned leaders to share their knowledge by giving away a mentorship breakfast. We were enthused by the amount of participants that entered the draw who were eager to share with us young leaders. We look forward to sharing more information from that session at a later date.
