Community Bank Leadership Academy
Developed by CBA’s Leadership Division, this Leadership Academy is designed specifically for the future community bank leader. This series of four sessions will benefit the attendees through individual self-discovery, personal and professional growth and career development. Each participant will walk away with their own personal development plan. The workshops are designed to bring continuity and sustainable accomplishments which will allow each future bank leader to build positive influence, team connections and ongoing learning resources. The Academy aims to support Georgia’s community banks in the development of its people so that these bankers will become impactful leaders of influence - for the bank, themselves and their communities. Participants who consecutively attend all four sessions in a calendar year will receive a Certificate of Completion.
A great way to increase employee retention and engagement is through professional development. The Association of Talent Development states that senior leaders in organizations “understand the critical strategic role learning has, and they are committed to investing in the growth and development of their people.” CBA encourages every Georgia community bank to provide learning opportunities for their teams, especially those who will be leaders.

Testimonials
“I genuinely looked forward to every session and I would have loved even more of them.”
– Taylor Jenkins, Consumer Lender and Assistant Banking Officer, Flint Community Bank, Albany
“The CBA Leadership Academy has made a significant impact on me both professionally and personally. During our time, we discovered things about each other but more importantly, about ourselves. Each session was enlightening and offered me time to reflect as a leader. No matter our role, we lead by our actions, and the CBA Leadership Academy helped me realize that. Leadership is an investment and I am grateful to both the CBA and the Senior Management Team at Newton Federal Bank for allowing me to take part in a much needed program.”
– Aimee Corcoran, AVP/Training Specialist, Newton Federal Bank, Covington
“The Leadership Academy is a great program for beginning bankers or bankers looking to move into a leadership position. This program has the materials to help in the achievement of a better developed individual; and, the skills acquired through this program are skills that can be implemented into everyday life. An individual is only as effective as the tools and the knowledge they possess, and the Leadership Academy not only provides the knowledge but the ability to properly execute in a professional manner.”
– Andrew Usry, Loan Officer/Loan Processor, First State Bank, Wrens
“Great Job CBA! CBA’s Leadership Academy was an excellent program at just the right time for a member of our up-and-coming “Leadership Team” at First State Bank.

I gauged the success of the Leader Academy by listening to our attendee tell us about everything he learned from the presentations and classes and how he thought they would be useful skills in his position at First State Bank.”
