Credit Union Times Names Legg one of ‘Women to Watch’ in 2013
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK (June 27, 2013) Known for its research, branding and marketing campaign execution for credit unions, Third Degree recently hired credit union executive Anne Legg. Her charge is to spearhead a new business consultation division for credit union CEOs and managers. Plans for Third Degree’s new and enhanced service offerings will be announced later this summer.
“One of the things I admire most about Third Degree is the agency’s process-driven approach,” said Anne Legg, Third Degree vice president of Business Strategies and Innovation. “It’s a creative firm with a very business savvy method of advising clients.”
Recently named to the Credit Union Times “Women to Watch” list, Legg worked in the credit union industry for 17 years prior to coming to Third Degree in.

Also in 2012, the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) recognized Legg as Marketing Professional of the Year and she was named part of the Rising 100 by the Credit Union Executive Society (CUES). She has served as an instructor at the CUNA Marketing Management School and is the former chair of the CUNA Marketing Business Development Council.
“Prior to Anne’s arrival, Third Degree had been advising credit union leaders on business operations strategies as well as branding and marketing,” said Roy Page, founder and CEO of Third Degree. “With her leading this division, we’re formalizing and adding to the deliverables for even greater impact and return for clients. Anne is a tremendous innovator. Her knack for translating ideas into strategy and her depth of experience within the credit union industry make her a natural fit for our team.”
