AUSTIN, Texas–There are now just three weeks left to make sure you are a part of a low-priced, one-of-a-kind meeting opportunity among credit unions that are seeking to not merge, but instead grow and prosper in 2019 and beyond.
And the meeting includes a special bonus session called “ROI: Roundtables of Innovation,” which will be a moderated discussion during which attendees will be able to work with others to essentially crowdsource improvements to some challenge they are facing as a leader or at their CU.
The CUTomorrow Conference in Austin, Texas Sept. 9-11 has an agenda designed by readers of CUToday.info and will feature the very best of the peer-group leading credit unions across the country sharing proven strategies in lending, new member onboarding, employee onboarding, cost-control, walletshare growth and much more.
The meeting, at the Omni Hotel in vibrant downtown Austin, is just $499. The low registration fee is being made possible due to the support of sponsors that include Catalyst Corporate, Volcorp, Harland Clarke, CU*Answers, Emery Financial Group, CUNA Mutual AdvantEdge Analytics, and Your Marketing Co.
James L. This & Associates is also co-sponsoring the meeting.
The Schedule
The meeting will kick off on the evening of Sept. 9 with a special session led by Filene’s Joel Hartzler offering insights on how attendees can make the most of what they will learn over the next day and a half, along with sharing other practical lessons Filene has learned about implementing change. That will be bookended with a closing session led by Dr. James This on how to take home all of the information and strategies shared and effectively implement them.
Also on the agenda of the meeting, which is designed to tap the old-fashioned concept of credit union collaboration, are:
- Jim McCarthy, CEO of Trailhead Credit Union in Portland, Ore., who will share his credit union’s unique and effective approach to onboarding new employees.
