The Strategy Focused Board - CUSOURCE Credit Union

CUDA® Director Training
National Governance Series
The Strategy Focused Board
(CDA-LVE-TSFBE01-WBN)
One of your fundamental governance accountabilities as a director is to ensure your organization has sound
strategies -- strategies that the management team can successfully implement and that are well aligned
with the best interests of your credit union, your members, and the communities you serve. Fulfilling this
accountability is one of the most important and impactful things that directors can do to add value for their
members while ensuring the success and sustainability of their organizations.
Kevin Yousie will challenge you to reflect upon the way your board contributes to the strategy formulation
and execution processes. Drawing upon his extensive experience as a strategy consultant, a business
school professor, an ICD.D certified director and former board Chair, Kevin will share best practices and
engage you in a stimulating conversation about a range of relevant topics including: the impact of board
culture on strategy and performance, how to shift board culture, the importance of agency theory, mission
creep in today’s economic environment, how to make board processes more strategic, as well as the role of
the board chair, the CEO, and the governance committee in all of this.
This webinar will equip you to:

See the impact of board culture on strategy and organizational performance.

Identify and use levers to shift board and organization culture.

Make board processes more strategic.

Describe agency theory and its implications for strategy and organizational performance.


Discuss boards’ weaknesses in stress-testing strategy.
