Under Glenna’s leadership, services have evolved over the last 33 years to remain relevant to members. Glenna was instrumental in the design and building of the current headquarters location that opened in 1995. She directed the launch of ATM and Debit cards, indirect lending, online banking and bill pay, a mobile app, e. Statements, e.

In her final months, Missouri Central Card Guard and mobile payments with Apple, Google, and Samsung Pay will make their debut. Throughout her career, Glenna has supported the credit union movement as a Board member on the Kansas City Chapter of Credit Unions, the Missouri Credit Union Association, the Missouri Corporate Credit Union, and currently serves on the Board of the Millennium Corporate Credit Union. She was also a founding member of the Women’s Association of Credit Union Leaders. Glenna is also a member of the Lee’s Summit Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club of Lee’s Summit.
“I have had an immensely gratifying and fulfilling career and have spent 33 rewarding years with Missouri Central Credit Union. It has been a privilege to lead this credit union, and I am incredibly grateful for the support and confidence shown by the Board of Directors over the course of my tenure here. By working together with the management, staff, and community, Missouri Central Credit Union is a financial institution that understands and meets the needs of its members, wherever they happen to be. My advice for leaders of the future is to practice servant leadership and treat your staff as you would treat your best member,” said Jarvis.
