The California/Nevada Credit Union League formally picked a seven-member search committee Monday to recruit a replacement for CEO Bill Cheney, also selecting O'Rourke and Associates of San Francisco as its search firm.
The league said it hopes to have a successor to Cheney, the designated new president/CEO of CUNA, by the trade group's annual meeting and convention Nov. 15-17. Cheney is to assume his CUNA post July 5.
"At this time no determination has been made about a potential interim appointment," the league said in a statement.
