Bankers participating in MBA’s inaugural Advocacy Boot Camp on Tuesday found themselves immersed in the legislative environment as they learned strategies to effectively share their banks’ stories with lawmakers.

Bankers participated in interactive exercises and a mock legislative debate. They also heard how to effectively express their views to state legislators from:

🔸Sen. Sandy Crawford, R-Buffalo
🔸Jason Crowell, The Bank of Missouri, who served two terms in the Missouri Senate and House of Representatives
🔸Keith Pritchard, Security Bank of Pulaski County, who is running for the Missouri House

As one participant noted, “I have been interested in learning more about advocacy for some time, and the boot camp was the perfect opportunity to gain the resources I felt I needed to take a next step.” Another shared that they gained a “thorough understanding of everything involved in a visit to talk to legislators, both that day and behind the scenes.”

Our thanks to all who participated in our Advocacy Boot Camp!
