DENTON, Texas — DATCU here has promoted Glen McKenzie to the role of president, following a move by the CU's board to split the title of president and CEO. Dale Kimble is set to remain as DATCU's CEO.
McKenzie takes the helm as president having most recently served as EVP. He joined the $674-million CU in 2001 and served in multiple capacities, including CFO and EVP of Operations. Prior to working at DATCU he was president of Firestone Credit Union.
CEO Kimble called McKenzie "an outstanding leader over the course of his career, and I have the greatest confidence that he will continue to lead DATCU in exemplary member service, growth and stability. He has extensive knowledge in all areas of the credit union, and as CEO I am excited and honored to continue working with Glen and the management team."
"The Board of Directors of DATCU believes that the growth and the financial success of DATCU in recent years have justified this move. This is an acknowledgment of the exceptional talent and dedication displayed by both individuals, and it is a strategic step in solidifying the future leadership of DATCU," James Wells, DATCU Chairman of the Board, said.
Under Kimble and McKenzie's direction, DATCU has been recognized by SNL Financial as the nation's 7th best performing credit union and has received multiple honors from publications throughout Texas.
