244: Banking On Purpose: Nonprofits, Money & Meaning In Uncertain Times with Kelly Skalicky
Joining Mallory today is the CEO of Stearns Bank National Association, Kelly Skalicky, a majority women-owned and governed financial services institution. Stearns Bank’s dedication lies in enabling individuals, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and local communities to reach their maximum financial potential.
Nonprofit organizations across the United States face unique financial challenges in times of economic uncertainty. Often working with limited resources, they must navigate the challenges of fulfilling urgent community needs while maintaining strong financial planning. Banking relationships, access to capital, and creative partnerships are vital tools not just for survival but also for long-term impact. Flexibility, trust, and continuous focus on the impact are essential in times like this.
Kelly earned her juris doctorate from the William Mitchell College of Law and her B.S. in Education from the University of Minnesota. She joined us today to talk about how to navigate financial uncertainty with confidence, how to build a strong banking relationship, and how to find opportunities amid challenges.
In this episode, you will be able to:
- Discover the importance of shared prosperity and the impact of financial empowerment.
- Learn why it’s crucial to choose the right bank for nonprofits.
- Explore the role of respect, understanding, and sharing values in uncertain times.
- Learn about the importance of building connections before potential crises.
