BizMix Event
Wednesday, February 10, 2010
8:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
Julian Hester Training Center at CBA Headquarters, Atlanta

2009 was a year of unprecedented change for many Georgia banks and bankers.  No doubt that each of us knows bankers who were downsized and who are seeking employment in the financial services industry.  In an effort to support the individuals in our membership who have been loyal supporters of the CBA of Georgia, we are pleased to host the first BizMix for mid- to executive-level bankers, most of whom have spent their entire career in the banking industry.

This COMPLIMENTARY event will feature dynamic speakers, tips for improving networking skills, regulatory concerns for former bankers seeking executive positions within a bank, and transitioning into a new career after a lifetime in banking. Participants will have the opportunity to network with fellow job-seekers, participate in a question-and-answer session with the panel, and receive information on a number of resources for bankers searching for employment.

Tell a friend about BizMix, and don’t miss this unique event! Register today! Space is limited.

Link Your Bank's Web Site to "My Community, My Bank"

Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) is building an online community of support at My Community, My Bank, an advocacy Web site dedicated to exposing the negative consequences of current Too-Big-To-Fail policies.  Link your bank's Web site to My Community, My Bank so the citizens of Main Street can voice their frustrations with paying for Wall Street's hubris.  Encourage your staff, your customers and your community to visit the site and send a letter to policymakers about the need to repair the policies that contributed to the near collapse of our entire financial system.
