Shelli McCoy’s distinguished career embodies the cooperative spirit so characteristic of the credit union movement: collaboration, equality, social justice, service, and investing in people, to name just some. For this Development Educator project award winner, it’s all intentional. No wonder Credit Union Magazine named McCoy a Credit Union Rock Star in 2019.

Carolyn Jordan has a super objective. She is committed to using servant leadership to help others unlock and achieve their highest potential. As a credit union leader, she strives to be an influencer, encouraging credit unions to be forward-thinking, digital first, and culturally diverse to achieve consistent high-level growth and service excellence. And that’s just one reason Jordan is on our list of credit union trailblazers.

Over the years, Johnson advanced through the ranks and, after 36 years, retired in 2015. However, “retirement” is often a subjective term.
