Featuring Gerry Agnes with Elevations Credit Union
June 27: 5:00-6:00 pm
Austin’s American Grill, Harmony Rd.
Gerry joined Elevations as its CEO in 2008. He directs the credit union’s strategic objectives, which focus on employee engagement, a loyal membership and superior financial performance. In the midst of the financial crisis of 2008, he led the charge to pursue the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, a highly competitive U.S. Presidential award that recognizes organizations for performance excellence. The Baldrige effort rallied the Elevations team to outperform both in-market competitors and credit unions nationwide, and in 2014, Elevations was named a Baldrige Award recipient by U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker. Gerry was named the 2015 CUES Outstanding Chief Executive, Mountain West Credit Union Association’s 2016 Credit Union Professional of the Year, and Boulder Chamber’s 2016 Business Person of the Year in large part due to his work around Elevations’ Baldrige recognition.
Gerry is a CPA with 33 years of professional experience and held positions as president, COO and CFO at various community financial institutions in California. He holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration and accounting from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. Currently, Gerry is chair of the Boulder County Business Hall of Fame and a board member and past chair of the Boulder Chamber. He is also a board member of Elevations Foundation. Governor Hickenlooper appointed Gerry to Colorado’s Financial Services Board in August 2015, on which he continues to serve.
