When Mike Hambrick arrived at Envision Credit Union in April 2011, the $260 million Tallahassee, Fla., institution was still struggling under the weight of the previous administration's strategies.

Long-term assets topped out at 43% of the overall portfolio with little to balance the risk on the short-term side.
