(Washington, DC)—On Friday, November 13 the board of directors of the National Cooperative Business Association CLUSA International published the following statement:

To Whom It May Concern:

I have reluctantly accepted the resignation of Michael Beall as CEO/President of the National Cooperative Business Association CLUSA International (NCBA CLUSA). Michael, who was hired as head of NCBA CLUSA on September 28, 2012 has decided to pursue other career opportunities. In his three-year tenure as CEO/President, Michael successfully made numerous contributions to the financial and business operations of NCBA CLUSA. 

NCBA CLUSA has named Judy Ziewacz as interim CEO and Michael has agreed to assist NCBA CLUSA as a consultant on an as needed basis.  All of us here at NCBA CLUSA join in wishing Michael well in his new position as senior consultant at Credit Union Strategic Planning, Inc.  Mike can be reached at mike@creditunionstrategicplanning.com.

Sincerely,

Andrew Jacob, Chairman of the Board, NCBA CLUSA
