CEO Update: Making investments and doing the work – The DCUC difference

DCUC is growing! In fact, we are pleased to announce the addition of two new member credit unions and are excited to help them serve their military and veteran communities. Beyond welcoming new members, there are many more innovations we are eager to deploy designed to make us even more responsive and accessible to our entire membership.

This month, the DCUC Board and I will engage in our annual planning session. I am proud to report we have made significant progress in our revised strategic plan, much of which has been achieved in just the past 60 days since our Annual Conference. Yet, there is still much to accomplish as we evolve as the industry’s second-largest trade association.

I’m inspired by the ideas and insights many of you, our members and strategic partners, have shared over the last six months. The positive response across the industry confirms we are on the right track. Additionally, the DCUC staff has shared valuable suggestions about what we can do more of along with what we should shift our energy to. We look forward to implementing these ideas, and more of our strategic initiatives, in 2025.

The recent dues increase, approved by our membership, will allow us to make necessary investments that will enhance and increase our overall value proposition. While we take great pride in maintaining the lowest dues in the industry, while outpacing others, we will still be able to invest in our people, processes, and platforms to demonstrate our value and deliver even greater results.
