bank's people as being a key component
in this success. " We're very much an
in-person institution, " he says. " We
pride ourselves on the old-school
community bank feel. When you come
into any of our branches, you're very
much welcomed by people. "
Rewarding employee achievement

for temporary housing for employees
who were displaced due to fl ooding.
Since it was fi rst chartered in 2003,
$913 million-asset Sanibel Captiva
has built eight locations and grown to
125 employees, with a ninth branch
planned for Fort Myers Beach.
" The last two years have been a
little bit of a challenge when it comes
to serving the community and doing
normal banking, " says Kyle DeCicco,
president and CEO, " but we found
a way to continue to prosper and
be there for our [employees and]
customer base through thick and thin. "
DeCicco credits the community
worked his way up.
" We've created a culture where people
understand that [advancement] can be
possible for anyone, " says DeCicco.
In fact, the community bank
encourages and supports its employees'
ongoing education and professional
development. " The people are what
makes it a great place to work, from
our board of directors and executive
management all the way down, " says
Lana Hollier, senior vice president and
director of deposit operations and a
20-year bank veteran. " It's just a very
family-oriented bank. "
Many employees have a stake in the
bank's success. About 60% own stock in
the bank, and employees get the right
of fi rst refusal to buy additional stock
when it becomes available, even before
the executive management team and
board of directors.
" We do take ownership, and we
take things personally, especially the
long-term employees, " says Hollier.
