The credit union now boasts 18 branches, 350 employees and $2 billion in assets. Over the last five years, its membership base has grown 42 percent.
Leadership points to Navigant Credit Union’s personal touch as the reason behind its success. “We’ve never lost sight of the values on which we were founded,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Lisa Dandeneau. “As long as we continue to treat our employees and members like family; give back to the communities we serve; and help our neighbors realize their financial dreams, we’ll be successful.”
Dandeneau said that Navigant employees – from leadership to branch managers to tellers – are very involved in their local communities, even outside of work.
Moving forward, Navigant aims to better serve its customer base by offering more digital banking tools.
