As detailed in a new blog post, ICBA’s LEAD FWD Summit—the most immersive leadership experience for community bankers—is scheduled for Sept. 8-9 in Bloomington, Minn.

Details: In the Main Street Matters blog post, ICBA Senior Executive Vice President, Chief Learning & Experience Officer Lindsay LaNore says:

  • The theme of LEAD FWD is Mission: Excellence, which invites emerging leaders to accept their mission to grow, lead, and shape the future of community banking.

  • According to LinkedIn, 91% of learning and development professionals agree that continuous learning is more important than ever for career success, yet many organizations struggle to prioritize leadership development—especially for rising talent.

  • With many seasoned community bank leaders nearing retirement, the need to equip the next generation with the tools, mindset, and mentorship to lead is urgent.

Agenda: The agenda features strategies on fraud mitigation, CAMELS ratings, customer experience, data-driven decisions, and more.

Location: LEAD FWD will take place at the Radisson Blu Mall of America, connected to the nation’s largest indoor shopping and entertainment complex.
