PURPOSE-DRIVEN STRATEGY
The Power Of Purpose
Just like every house needs a foundation, every organization needs a clear purpose. Pursuing your purpose is a powerful change from “business as usual” and involves coloring outside the lines. Ask yourself these questions:
- What is your credit union’s core reason for being?
- What is it that allows you to have a unique, positive impact on your members and their communities?
- How do you serve them in ways that set you apart from other financial choices in the market?
- If your credit union went away, would anyone miss it?
These questions point to the essence of purpose. Making the decision to lead with purpose is transformational. Regardless of where you are on your purpose journey, Callahan can help accelerate your efforts. Schedule a free purpose consultation to get started.

The Transformational Power Of Purpose
Purpose goes beyond financial performance. It includes social, environmental, and community impact. Purpose defines why society should want your credit union to succeed. When done right, purpose makes you indispensable to your members.

Callahan’s Sustainable Growth Framework
After years of working alongside leading credit unions, we’ve developed the Sustainable Growth Framework, to help others on their unique journeys put purpose at the forefront of their strategy.
Why? Research suggests that purpose-led companies significantly outperform others in their peer group. Purpose creates loyalty and trust – among members and employees alike – and generates a strategic, competitive advantage that cannot easily be copied by competition.
