“Be unreasonable, but not unrealistic.” - Renée Sattiewhite
Welcome to episode 206 of The CUInsight Experience podcast with your hosts, Randy Smith, co-founder of CUInsight.com, and Jill Nowacki, President and CEO of Humanidei.

With a comprehensive suite of analytics, cloud and talent solutions, the Trellance team ensures credit unions increase efficiency, manage risk, and improve member experience.
In this season, Jill and I will have conversations centered around leadership, credit unions, and living our best lives. We will have some of the most respected leaders from around credit unions who we are grateful to call friends join us in the discussion from time to time too.
In this episode, we are joined by Renée Sattiewhite, President & CEO at the African-American Credit Union Coalition (AACUC). We discuss the growing pains that come with scaling up an organization, and Renée reflects on her experience scaling AACUC through tough times, including a rapid expansion during the COVID-19 pandemic that required balancing remote hires and maintaining the organization's core values.
Renée’s journey as a leader truly highlights the importance of hiring the right people and making sure that the organization’s culture remains intact as things grow and change. She talks candidly about the lessons that she has learned in guiding her team and offers a unique perspective on leading during periods of growth.
From training employees to prioritizing well-being over profits, Renée offers some truly valuable insight for leaders dealing with their own growing pains. Enjoy our conversation with Renée Sattiewhite!
