WASHINGTON–So, you’re a big, sophisticated credit union. That’s cool, said one person, but there are still challenges to be met.
Three of those challenges were identified by Brandi Stankovic, managing partner and cofounder of Mitchell Stankovic & Associates, during the company’s Underground Collision Conference held prior to GAC in Washington.
According to Stankovic, those three challenges are:
1. “We have to learn. You have been around the credit union block. Cool. So, you’re fancy. Cool. You still have to keep learning.”
2. “It’s the love. If there is anything the world needs more of right now, it’s love. And that’s networking and connecting with the people around you. This industry is built on cooperative principles. It’s not charity. That means shared enterprise, affinity, relationships.”
3. Kick ass. “We have got to kick some ass. We can create the future. It’s in our hands. We can create a prosperous industry, and your members are counting on you and me to make that happen. You have to make that happen every single day.”
