Royal Credit Union (Royal) Branch Manager II, Jill Ettesvold was presented Royal’s 2023 Positive Impact Award. The Positive Impact Award is Royal’s highest team member recognition for a team member who has truly gone above and beyond to make a lasting impact on Royal’s Members, team members, and communities. All Royal team members are eligible to make nominations for the Positive Impact Award, and the recipients are chosen by the executive team.
“The commitment, dedication, and the genuine care Jill has shown to the community and our team make her an outstanding candidate for this recognition,” said Royal President and CEO Brandon Riechers. “Jill’s contributions go beyond the workplace and extend to her genuine care for our Members, our team, and the well-being of the communities we serve.”
Ettesvold has been making a difference at Royal for forty-three years. Ettesvold has served as Branch Manager for both the Stillwater and St. Paul offices, and recently led her teams in the transition to the new locations for both offices within just a few months of each other. The dedication to Royal’s core values is evident in her daily interactions with both Members and team members. The number of people who specifically visit the St. Paul office to speak with Ettesvold highlights the level of trust and respect she has earned over the years. Ettesvold is more than just a colleague; she is a teacher, a role model, and a friend to Members and team members alike. Her commitment to making a positive impact is further demonstrated through her active involvement in many community organizations.
