If you follow any of the community banking lists on Twitter, it won't take you long before you come across Pres Kennedy. He is one of the leading voices in the community banking industry. He is not shy to talk about his feelings on advocacy...at all! However, what I found interesting was his thoughts on the succession planning his bank recently undertook as well as his advice to bankers. Listeners and readers of Barret's content will know that I try and ask bankers that are moving into that post-daily banking phase...what will you miss? I have yet to be disappointed in the answer and always find I have learned something new. I hope you feel the same here.
