Episode 17 - Steve Schmidle (June 2022)
Episode description
Today we are joined by Steve Schmidle, CFO of Westerra CU in Denver and member of the WCMS Alumni Association Board of Directors. Steve has served credit unions for nearly 20 years in various finance and strategic roles, and is currently helping lead a progressive digital transformation at Westerra. He shares with us the story of that transformation to date, and provides some insights into how it has gone so far and why now was the time for change at Westerra. While the idea of a digital transformation may seem very technical in nature, it starts the same way all successful strategies begin - with a focus on culture. Listen in to hear Steve's point of view, and the unmistakable impact that WCMS has made to his career and life.
