President/CEO Roundtable

 

Make Your Bank Stronger with the Help of Your Peers
Running a bank has never been tougher.  You need all the insight, experience and ideas you can get.  No one knows your business and your job like another banker.  In an age of information saturation when bankers can turn to any number of sources for problem solving, the enlightened executives turn to one another.  You don't have to test every idea for yourself or rely solely on internal resources and your own experiences to come up with creative solutions to tough problems.  That's what the President/CEO Roundtable is all about.

How the Roundtables work
Each Roundtable will be organized based on bank size and market to ensure participants have common characteristics but meaningful diversity without being competitors.  Roundtables will meet three times during the year with dates chosen by the members.  The members also select agenda topics.  The facilitator is responsible for coordinating meeting details, providing resources and handout materials, and guiding the group discussion.  GBA will assist the facilitator in organizing the groups but will not be represented at the meetings.

Directing the Roundtable Discussions
We are especially pleased that the Roundtables are being facilitated by longtime Georgia banker, Mike Odom.  Mike is well-known in banking circles and has been active in GBA over the years, most recently chairing our Community Bankers Committee.  Mike brings 20 years of broad-based bank management to the Roundtables.  After graduating from Georgia Southern University with a degree in accounting, he spent 10 years with what was then Trust Company Bank of Southeast Georgia, Brunswick, as a Commercial Lender and Lending Group Manager.  He joined Bryan Bank & Trust in Richmond Hill as Executive Vice President and Senior Credit Officer and was later named President and Chief Operating Officer.  He served in a similar capacity at the holding company, The Savannah Bancorp, Inc., before being named CEO.
