George Hermann Named New President of Windsor Federal Savings

  WINDSOR FEDERAL SAVINGS ANNOUNCES SELECTION
OF GEORGE HERMANN AS NEXT PRESIDENT

(WINDSOR, CT – JANUARY 19, 2012) – The Board of Directors of Windsor Federal Savings today announced the selection of George Hermann, a Connecticut native and a longtime community banking executive, to serve as their new President and COO, effective February 1^st.  Hermann, who will succeed current President Mark Griffin, will also assume the role of CEO when Griffin retires in June. 

Hermann joins Windsor Federal Savings after an extensive career as a banking executive in Connecticut, including the last five years as President and CEO of The First National Bank of Suffield, where he guided them to consistently strong results during some challenging economic times.

“I would like to be able to build upon the strong foundation that the Board has put down” said Hermann.  “The first step is to make crystal clear to our customers and employees that our commitment to our communities will not change. As a community bank, involvement in local activities and organizations is part of our fabric. It will be business as usual in that regard at Windsor Federal, and I sincerely look forward to meeting with customers and employees alike in the coming weeks.”

“While he may well be a different face, George is very familiar with our market area and is a good community banker” said Mark Griffin.   “He truly understands the importance of strong community involvement, and he will ensure that Windsor Federal maintains and grows the relationships that we already have. I know George will have new and innovative ideas, but at the heart of the matter will be the strong focus on service to our customers that we have always strived for.  Our customers can be assured that our commitment to personalized service – and to being a good neighbor – will not change.”

Hermann, a native of Stratford, will bring a hands-on style to the job that will help him as he begins the process of getting to know customers, employees, and the communities.  “With the expected changes in the banking industry over the next ten years, banks like Windsor Federal are going to be key for the economic success of their communities.  I’m honored to have been chosen to lead Windsor Federal Savings, and I look forward to assisting with that growth.”
