Closing branches, sending staff to work at home, and re-scheduling board meetings, are just part of what’s making the rest of 2020, including traditional strategic planning opportunities, so uncertain.
Strategic conversations among you and your senior team cannot be put on hold indefinitely.
Across the past few months, we’ve been talking with a lot of credit union leaders, like yourself, about how to keep strategy top-of-mind.
