ASHEVILLE, N.C. – NCUA Vice Chairman Rodney Hood underscored the importance of board development and succession planning for continuity of leadership during a speech at the SE Regional Director's Conference in North Carolina.

Hood commended the hard work of the volunteers during his July 24 address.
