July 13: Town Hall Meeting

Seems like the Michigan offices, and, therefore, myself included, always miss out on the guest appearances of major players in the Bank. These guys typically give there quarterly "All-Hands" meetings in the East Coast; usually Charlotte, Delaware or some of the markets where the Bank has a large office presence. But, today, the old LaSalle HQ in Troy was host to the Michigan Town Hall meeting, and I had received a personal invite to attend. So, I did. This was my first Town Hall meeting for the Bank, and I had the privilege of hearing Mr. Joe Price, the head of our Consumer and Small Business Banking division. I also got to see and listen to Kieth Cockrell, the Regional Exec of Michigan's Banking Centers, and the gentleman who took over that role when I was hired into Bank of America following its purchase of my former employer, LaSalle Bank. Good stuff, good stuff.
