Paul Pick, Executive Vice President, Commercial Lending, graduated on April 16 from the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado’s (GSBC) Executive Development Institute for Community Bankers® (EDI) as a member of its 11th cohort.
GSBC’s EDI program equips its participants for success with extensive leadership development and bank management training. Participants are up-and-coming C-level executives whose work efforts influence the future direction of their banks. To aid in their development, each participant is assigned a mentor and an executive coach. EDI curriculum topics cover customer relationships, cybersecurity, organizational change, the economy, talent management, profit improvement and more.
Pick was one of 14 community bankers who graduated from the program during a ceremony in Broomfield, Colorado.
“EDI is helping community banks develop their future executives in support of the bank’s succession plan,” said GSBC President Michael Stevens. “It is reassuring to see Paul’s passion for the industry, his community and his customers. GSBC is proud to have been a part of his development.”
In addition to the graduates, GSBC hosted two other cohorts of up to 15 participants representing 18 U.S. states total. GSBC is now enrolling a 14th cohort scheduled to begin in October 2025. For more information, visit www.GSBColorado.org.
