Harmon named regional bank president
Submitted by Wells Fargo
Laura Schulte, head of Charlotte-based eastern community banking for Wells Fargo, recently announced that Darryl Harmon, formerly Wells Fargo’s regional president for Central California, has been named regional president for Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.
In his new role, Harmon leads the retail, small business and business banking operations for Wells Fargo in these regions and will be based in Atlanta.
“With his breadth of leadership and banking experience, Darryl is an excellent addition to our talented team,” Schulte said. “His commitment to our team members and customers will give our company a competitive advantage in these important states.”
A 25-year veteran of the financial services industry, Harmon has held a number of regional leadership roles with Wells Fargo, including head of business banking for Central California and Business Banking manager in Iowa. He was previously the Quad Cities president for Brenton Bank, acquired by Wells Fargo in 2000. Before joining Wells Fargo, he was with Bank One in Illinois. He has a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Memphis State University and an MBA from the University of Illinois. He is also an active community leader and served on the boards of the Children’s Hospital of Central California Foundation and the Marjoree Mason Center.
“I am very excited about the opportunity to join the Eastern Leadership team for the new Wells Fargo,” said Harmon, “Wachovia has a rich legacy of serving the customers and communities throughout the Southeast. As we move forward, I believe the combined companies of Wachovia and Wells Fargo will be well-positioned to not only continue the rich legacy of Wachovia, but to build upon it.
Wachovia Bank is a subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Co..
