Emerging
Community Bank
Leaders
" Simon Sinek's TED Talk, 'How
Great Leaders Inspire Action,'
had a huge impact on my approach to
projects. I watch it at least twice a year. "
-Stephanie Fitch
Brian Brooking, 39
Vice president of mortgage and
consumer lending
Woodlands Bank
Williamsport, Pa.
A mortgage maestro and
creative thinker
With more than 16 years' experience in the
banking industry and a belief in transparent
leadership, Brian Brooking aims to make
everyone he interacts with feel like a priority.
His out-of-the-box ideas and ability to translate
strategy into action have resulted in him
dominating the community's mortgage sales.
At Woodlands Bank, Brooking led the merger
of two lending departments into one, creating
a more eff icient and productive approach to
consumer and residential lending.
Stephanie Fitch, 29
Assistant vice president and
marketing and digital strategist
Frederick County Bank
Frederick, Md.
Keeping small businesses at the
heart of communities
Stephanie Fitch believes community banking is a
key part of the local-fi rst movement that encourages
people to shop at small businesses, visit farmers
markets and give back where they live. Using a mix
of traditional and digital media, her campaigns for
Frederick County Bank include " Every Business has a
Story, " which showcases local organizations and the
role the bank plays in their stories.
One of the fi rst videos told the story of a vegan
doughnut shop that started in a borrowed commercial
kitchen, but has since grown into its own storefront,
with a huge local following. Fitch worked with the
founders to create a limited-edition doughnut named
for the bank, which made a " dough-nation " to a local
nonprofi t for each sale. The shop sold out within three
hours. When she's not telling stories, Fitch volunteers
with Habitat for Humanity, United Way Day of Action
and other local nonprofi ts.
" At a young age, my grandmom instilled in me, 'I can and
I will,' and these are words that I live by every day! "
-Lauren Calisti
Lauren Calisti, 33
Vice president of human
resources
Hyperion Bank
Philadelphia, Pa.
Ensuring continuity for customers
Lauren Calisti has a go get 'em attitude and can-do enthusiasm that make anything
possible. Staying after hours if needed and helping out in any way she can, she's
always happy to go the extra mile and recruits other team members to help out with
local events. One of Calisti's signature accomplishments was setting up Hyperion
Bank's disaster recovery site, ensuring that in the event of a catastrophic event,
customer service at the single-unit bank wouldn't be compromised.
