Empowering the Next Generation of Credit Union Leaders Through Innovation and Growth

Shanece Robinson, Team Lead, Learning & Development, Sharonview Federal Credit Union, Fort Mill, SC, has been named the 2024 CUES Emerge winner.

As one of five finalists, Robinson’s journey began when she was selected into the CUES Emerge program early in 2024. From there, attendees engaged in live online courses and Mastermind sessions, creating project ideas and developing business cases, which were later reviewed by a panel of judges.

On October 2, Robinson and the four other finalists presented their projects live during an online pitch show. The event was hosted by Tim McAlpine, Founder & CEO of Currency Marketing.

Two other finalists, Irene Boyer, Consumer Loan Manager, WECU, Bellingham, WA, and Kelley Taghon, AVP/Brand + Creative, Everwise Credit Union, South Bend, IN, were named as runners-up.

As the winner, Robinson earned a free registration to attend CUES Advanced Management Program. Each runner-up can choose from two prize packages, both featuring CUES courses tailored specifically for emerging leaders. Additionally, Robinson, Boyer, and Taghon each earned leadership assessments and coaching from Envision Excellence, an executive coaching and leadership development organization.

Robinson’s winning business case, The Enhanced Learning Experience, outlines the impact of cohesive learning journeys through innovative educational experience platforms.

The other Finalists taking part in the online pitch show were:

  • Scott McClellan, Ph.D., Safety & Physical Security Manager, SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union, Tustin, CA

  • Trent Saflin, Mortgage Loan Officer, Northwest FCU, Herndon, VA
