In the latest Travillian Next episode, Charles Potts, EVP and Chief Innovation Officer at ICBA, joins host Brian Love for a spirited discussion on how technology is transforming community banking. From flying cars to robotic process automation, they cover how banks are using tech to boost efficiency—not replace talent—and why innovation and succession planning must go hand-in-hand. The conversation also explores how data is reshaping leadership pipelines and why roles like CTO and Chief Data Officer are becoming fast tracks to the CEO chair. With real-world examples and plenty of “bank geek” banter, this episode is both insightful and entertaining.
