Virtual Directors’ Forum Session: Mining the Co-op Advantage

Mining the Co-op Advantage

Description: The COVID pandemic has spurred a need for change, and this is the time to revisit our co-operative roots and “co-operate among co-operatives”. Reflecting back to some of the learnings from the 2018 Forum session of the same name, Donna and Cory will lead Directors in a discussion on why and how they should be supporting co-operatives, as we move through and past the pandemic into a new world.

Facilitator: Donna Bailey, Director, Client Solutions & Research, Canadian Credit Union Association

Speaker: Cory Munden, CEO, Leading Edge Credit Union, NFLD & Labrador

2020-2021 PROGRAM DETAILS

After careful thought and deliberation, the DF Board made the difficult decision to postpone the 36th annual Directors’ Forum in-person conference to the fall of 2021, as the health and well-being of system directors and their families are of utmost importance to us.

In its place, we hosted a three-part Director Discussion Series in June 2020, and are running a series of virtual governance sessions from September 2020 to June 2021. It is our goal to keep Ontario system Directors engaged and informed about important topics that are relevant to their unique roles throughout the year. Click to learn more!

The DF provides organizations with a unique opportunity to invest in the professional development and continuing education of credit union Directors. As the system is constantly evolving, so to is the Directors’ Forum, to ensure that we remain relevant and address the unique needs of our leadership. Credit unions and other stakeholder organizations that support the DF’s mission through sponsorships, and/or with registrations to our annual conference and webinars (or both!), is what enables us to plan, produce and execute the highly-valued programming each and every year.
