CBA Announces Team Updates

I am pleased to announce two important staffing updates at CBA that reflect our continued commitment to delivering exceptional service, programs, and value to our members.

First, please join me in welcoming Ms. Jennie Thomas, CAE, to the CBA team as Director of Member Experience and Association Programs. Jennie brings extensive association management experience and a proven track record of developing innovative programs, strengthening member engagement, and enhancing the overall member experience. She also holds the prestigious Certified Association Executive (CAE) designation, the highest professional credential in the association management industry. Jennie's expertise, leadership, and passion for serving members will be tremendous assets as we continue to grow and enhance the services and opportunities available to Georgia's community banking professionals.

I am also delighted to announce that Michele Doyle has been appointed Director of Professional Development and Communications. Although Michele has been with CBA for a relatively short time, she has already made a significant impact on our organization. Through her dedication, creativity, and strong leadership skills, she has helped advance several key initiatives and has demonstrated exceptional ability in the critical areas of professional development, member education, and communications. In her expanded role, Michele will continue to lead efforts to deliver high-quality educational programs, foster professional growth opportunities, and strengthen communications with our members and stakeholders.

These additions and leadership appointments reflect the strength of our team and our commitment to providing outstanding support, resources, and advocacy for Georgia's community banking industry. I am confident that both Jennie and Michele will play important roles in helping CBA achieve its strategic goals and continue delivering exceptional value to our members.

Please join me in welcoming Jennie to the CBA family and congratulating Michele on her new role and expanded responsibilities. We look forward to their continued success and contributions to the association.

- John McNair, CBA President & CEO
