CUES announces inaugural Strategic Innovation Institute graduates
MADISON, WI (September 2, 2015) — CUES is pleased to recognize 42 credit union industry leaders who recently completed its transformational new program, Strategic Innovation Institute. This is the first group to earn the Certified Innovation Executive (CIE) designation.
“The Strategic Innovation Institute launched in 2014, with the goal of broadening strategic thinking and building capacity for innovation throughout the industry,” said CUES president/CEO John Pembroke. “We are proud to recognize this group for their accomplishments, and look forward to seeing how they continue to impact the industry.”
Attendees learn from distinguished faculty at MIT Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stanford Graduate School of Business, Stanford University.
“There are some occasions when a program changes the DNA of your thinking…this is one of those programs. It combines key material from two of the most academically challenging institutions, taking participants on a coast-to-coast journey that shakes up their current way of thinking about nearly everything, and helps them re-orient with tools, frameworks and methods that can be immediately applied in one’s institution,” said Sander Casino, SVP/finance, Local Government Federal Credit Union, Raleigh, N.C.
A few seats are still available for Strategic Innovation Institute I, hosted by MIT (http://www.cues.org/professional-development/training-education/institutes/strategic-innovation-institute-i/overview), September 20-25, 2015—visit cues.org/sii for details.
