The Power Behind Regions
Evergreen is a yearly associate-recognition week. It’s also a time to appreciate the impact Regions has on communities within its footprint.
By Mel Campbell
No existential angst here; at Regions, we know who we are.
We know what Regions associates do in the communities we serve.
When Regions associates want to understand the impact that they have, there is almost no shortage of stories, anecdotes and statistics. When you combine the efforts of some 20,000 associates, working daily to meet the needs of customers, serve their colleagues, and help strengthen the communities in which we live and work, only good can come from that.
