They are the area’s most accomplished business leaders in their industry using criteria that include demonstrating exceptional leadership, vision, and passion.
Congratulations to the following CBA members who were named to the 2022 Georgia Titan 100:
“The TITAN 100 nomination recognizes the strength of the community banking industry in Georgia, and what an important role that community banks statewide play in supporting new and existing businesses,” said Ron Quinn, President & CEO, Peach State Bank & Trust, Gainesville, and former CBA Chair. “Our strong banking industry has helped Georgia to remain as the top state in which to do business for the past eight years and will continue well into the future. It was an honor to be nominated, and I am just one of 150 plus bankers in Georgia that are deserving of this recognition.”
Neil Stevens, President & CEO, Oconee State Bank, Watkinsville, shared, “It is an honor to be chosen for the Titan 100, but the true winners are the incredible team members who I have the pleasure of working alongside each day. They are the ones who make the magic happen.”
“I am honored to be included in this group of impressive leaders from across Georgia, including CBA’s John McNair and so many other friends and colleagues, from community banking and beyond,” stated
Charlie Crawford, Chairman & CEO, Hyperion Bank, Atlanta.
“Being selected as a Georgia Titan 100 is truly an honor, and it is my privilege to represent the talented team at GBC," said Bartow Morgan, CEO, Georgia Banking Company, Atlanta. "Congratulations to all of the winners in this distinguished group of industry leaders.”
“I am grateful for the selection as a recipient of the Georgia Titan 100 award sponsored by Wipfli," stated John McNair, President & CEO, Community Bankers Association of Georgia. “The honor recognizes Georgia’s entire community banking industry as well as the hard-working and dedicated professionals that work at the Community Bankers Association in Georgia.”
