During our conversation, we talk about some of the major advocacy challenges she and her team are facing, including gridlock, disruptions to the industry, and outside players, and why credit unions shouldn’t be afraid to join the fight. While Carrie says we have some tough challenges ahead of us as an industry, It’s out of those challenges that opportunities arise. She’s seen it happen numerous times throughout her career at NAFCU, and it’s what motivates her and her team to keep pushing forward. Carrie and I also chat about leadership and making tough decisions. She shares with us some of the things she’s learned as both a leader and manager, as well as some of the mistakes she made as a young leader. We also discuss how mentors have helped her in her career and personal life and the best advice she’s ever received - have fun!Additionally, during the rapid-fire questions part of the interview, Carrie shares a super funny story about the first time she got into memorable trouble, what she wanted to be when she grew up, and more.
