Leslie Godridge, vice chairman and co-head of wholesale banking,
and Kate Quinn, vice chairman and chief administrative officer at
U.S. Bank, have been honored by American Banker Magazine among the
“Most Powerful Women in Banking” for 2017. Honorees will be
celebrated in a ceremony hosted by American Banker in New York City
in October.
“Leslie and Kate are dedicated leaders who are helping us shape
the future of U.S. Bank while influencing the day-to-day activities
that drive our success,” said Andy Cecere, president and CEO. “We
are honored to celebrate this accomplishment, as people throughout
our business look to them to model what it means to lead with
trust, integrity and strength.”
Godridge, who joined U.S. Bank in 2007, is at the helm of U.S.
Bank Wholesale Banking, one of the company’s four primary business
lines. She was promoted to the company’s managing committee as a
vice chairman in early 2016, and oversees growing business in
national corporate banking, global treasury management, public and
nonprofit finance, international banking and corporate specialized
industries. Once regionally focused, the company’s national
corporate business banking now has national recognition thanks to
Godridge’s leadership.
Quinn, who joined U.S. Bank in 2013, oversees one of the most
high-profile divisions of the company in recent years, and has been
the driving force behind U.S. Bank’s corporate strategy and brand
transformation. U.S. Bank has a reputation as one of the most
admired banks in the financial industry, and Quinn’s work has
ensured that the culture continues to expand its reach. Quinn
brought an aggressive strategy to unify the company’s brand,
proactively manage its reputation as one of the most trusted
choices in the industry, establish a strategic framework for future
growth, and oversee the human resources efforts to build and live
the brand from the inside out.
U.S. Bank has been consistently recognized in the “Most Powerful
Women in Banking” since the program’s inception. Godridge ranked
15th on the Women in Banking list and Quinn was ninth on the list
of Women to Watch in 2017.
“Leslie and Kate are among the exceptional leaders moving this
industry forward,” said Executive Editor Bonnie McGeer, who chairs
American Banker’s Women in Banking Editorial Committee. “The women
selected for this honor are tackling tough business challenges with
great success. The vision they bring to their work – their diverse
skill sets and extensive strategic responsibilities – show that
there are many ways to have a big impact.”
