Regions
Bank (NYSE: RF) today announced that Mike Temple, Head of Regions

given to an associate of Regions for outstanding dedication and job
performance, as well as exemplary involvement and commitment to the
community.

Since joining Regions in 1996, Temple has proven himself in a host of
areas – including Business Services, Credit and Corporate Real Estate.
In 2008, he was asked to lead the development of a new Real Estate
Corporate Banking Group, a now 30-person team. Throughout his career –
both inside and outside the company – he has distinguished himself and
his teams with a commitment to high performance and on treating people
with care and respect.
“There is a depth to Mike that makes him so much more than your average
person or leader,” said John Asbury, head of Business Services at
Regions, “People are drawn to him because of his honesty, caring and his
knowledge, and at the same time, by his positive outlook and how he
encourages others – through his example and his words.”
His teams would point to his selflessness and his quiet dedication, even
as he battled – and continues to battle – cancer. In this struggle,
Temple has been an example, not just in staying engaged with his teams
but also in staying positive and open. The community organizations for
which he has worked could say the same … and have, as he supported
cancer research through his work with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
and was the recipient of the YMCA of Greater Birmingham’s Red Triangle
Award.
The Better Life Award is presented monthly to a Regions associate who
lives the company’s mission to make life better for customers,
associates and the communities it serves, and who is an example of the
company’s values:
-
Put People First
-
Do What Is Right
-
Focus On Your Customer
-
Reach Higher
-
Enjoy Life
Regions associates are nominated by their managers and peers for the
award. Regions Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Grayson
Hall honors recipients at the company’s headquarters in Birmingham,
Ala., at a meeting broadcast live to offices and branches in the 16
states Regions serves. In addition to the recognition, associates
earning the Better Life Award will receive an additional week of
vacation and a crystal award.
