  1. For the commenter who said that this was not news: As far as I can determine the names of the Nominating Committee still have not been published to the SECU membership. Couldn't be found in the news releases, Election procedures, news letter, or the governance section of the new website, which must admit is a bit hard to navigate, but...

    Even checked the new "2024 SECU Strategic Plan", with no luck...perhaps under RBV*?

    *RBV = risk-based voting!

  2. Who are the 2 at large members? How were they chosen?

    1. Wondering the same thing…

    2. they are members and very accomplished professionals. Then, gonna guess they were chose by the others on the committee, and appointed by the committee chair, like the bylaws require. I hope there is the same interest in the actual slate that gets through as there is in speculating, second-guessing, and criticizing the people and process that will bring them forward.

    3. The SECU bylaws state - despite what you "gonna guess" incorrectly - that the Board chair (Ms. Moon), not the Nom Com Chair (Mr. Stone), appoints all Nom Com committee members.

      Not sure how you know they are all "very accomplished professionals", but assume that is why members have asked the Board to simply publish their names and bios. (That still hasn't happened by the way.)

      I am certain that letting members know about the Nom Com at-large members would also confirm what you suspect - very fine folks.

      But transparency shouldn't be this difficult, should it?

    1. agree... but not sure why the heading of the post says independent. the committee is full of existing board members and isn't meant to be independent. does the board represent in any documents that there is an independent committee, and for that matter, how independent is defined?

  4. So it begs the question, who is the corporate masters of the CU now?

  5. incumbent on the committee to "search" diligently? it's incumbent on members to step up and get nominated. "search" committee can't stop members from getting to a vote if members follow the process, can they?

    1. Too late for anyone to step up this year. The application dateline has come and gone. The SECU Board will announce their candidates July 19. Then the rubber hits the road for the rest of us. We will have to get signatures on the petitions for "our" candidates to run. The SECU Board has graciously allowed a few more day for that this year!

  8. Pretty much a sham of just reappointing their incumbent friends unless Stone steps up.

  10. these guys operate like a wannabe hedge fund--destroying everything. Hedge funds at least make money. This Board can't even do that--claims to(Profits!) but sure has lots of losses in the process. And is certainly wiping out the workforce and member wealth.
