Florida Banking October/November 2024

That is why our most significant peer effort is around “Horizon Bankers” or emerging leaders (name is still TBD!). In September, we started monthly virtual meetings with a core group of volunteer bankers to organize the effort. If you are interested in being involved, please reach out to me or Pam Ricco. The group wants to facilitate in-person events regionally as a starting point, inviting a broad range of local bankers and potentially having a short program along with networking. Please look out for information in your area! We have also started virtual peer groups for HR/People, CIO/CTO, and independent trust company leaders. More are coming, based on banker interests. In addition, we are holding in-person, CEO peer breakfasts around the state hosted by bankers. I encourage all of you to take full advantage of the opportunities available within our association. Join a peer group or propose one, attend events, engage in discussions and share your experiences. By doing so, you not only contribute to your personal and professional growth, but help strengthen the fabric of our entire industry.
