✅ "Dear Leigh Brady, Would you please forward to me the instructions for calling a "Special Meeting" as prescribed in the SECU bylaws." [link]
😎 The SECU bylaws according to our CEO Leigh Brady:
✔ “The board of directors shall prescribe procedures to insure that only credit union members may participate and vote during any regular or special meeting.”
✔ "SECU does not currently maintain standing procedures to insure that only credit union members may participate and vote during a special meeting.
"The Trial" by Franz Kafka is the terrifying tale of a citizen who must defend himself against a
charge about which he can get no information.
✅ The story raises deep questions about justice, power, and personal agency, in a system where logic is overturned and authority is shadowy. The book explores the dehumanizing forces of authority, leaving readers questioning justice and individual freedom.
The "new/new" face of cooperative leadership? Trials and fibulations ...
the NEW/NEW of EVERYTHING!!!
ReplyDeleteTo call a special meeting you need signatures from 10% of the membership. How is this confusing? Do you think they will do it for you?
ReplyDelete9:16 pm It is confusing because nowhere in the SECU bylaws is there any reference to a "special meeting" being required to present a member resolution to the SECU Board for consideration. It is a rogue "lrgal" opinion created internally out of thin air.
ReplyDeleteHow would you address that fact?
no one has asked why its not 10% of the 'voting age' membership. How many members are children?
ReplyDelete9:49am You'll note that SECU readily confesses (see post) it has not adopted procedures for a "special meeting" although the SECU bylaws specifically state: "The board of directors shall prescribe procedures..."
DeleteDifficult to follow procedures for a "special meeting" when those procedures don't exist.
The bylaws appear to be an inconvenience for SECU. A legal document which may be ignored at leisure.
I'm sure there's an oversight board that can look into this... (roll my eyes)!
ReplyDeleteThe beatings will continue until morale improves!
ReplyDeleteYou sound like Maduro
ReplyDeleteHow should resolutions to the board be handled?
ReplyDeleteTransparently
Delete7:52 Most credit unions accept resolutions at their annual membership meeting. This forum is provided under the agenda item "New Business".
DeleteThis method appears in the suggested standard rules of order for annual meetings of both state and federal credit unions.
This was the procedure used in 2022 at the SECU annual meeting when a resolution simply requesting information was approved.
The SECU Board eliminated this process by amending the SECU bylaws in 2023 without input from SECU members.
More repressive measures were subsequently adopted in 2024 and 2025.
Maybe the head of HR should get in the Boards ear pressing them for change. Then they can hire a CEO from left field to sink the ship by hiring a thousand banking employees with a directive to uproot the established mechanism, while underestimating the resolve of those who actually love the Credit Union. Then when the going gets tough, perhaps he will resign and they can then appoint said head of HR as CEO. She can then place her/she/them friends in all of the C and E Level positions so they can pad their retirement before she completes the ship sinking.
ReplyDeleteI know, sounds crazy but got to try something!
Board voted to hire Gym over Brady in 2021. Thought she was second rate.
Delete“It’s like deja-vu, all over again.”
Delete@9:02 - Pretty good summary
Delete@9:02 - Accurate.
DeleteIt should be "ensure" not "insure". Can SECU not afford proofreaders?
ReplyDeleteThat would cost money.
