Callahan & Associates SVP Katy Slater joins us on the program to discuss the firm's Sustainable Business Strategy with Harvard Business School's Rebecca Henderson. Sustainable Business Strategy is an online, three-module course that incorporates short video lectures and case studies modeled after the Harvard Business School case method -- along with active learning experiences.
According to Katy, these modules are completed over six weeks and encompass both individual and team-based learning activities, ending with an in-person capstone discussion in Cambridge, MA. The course starts this fall in October. Click here to register. Katy adds that Sustainable Business Strategy helps credit union executives explore business models that drive change; create tactics that influence competitive advantages of being a purpose-driven firm; and discover ways credit union teams can become, as well as develop, purpose-driven leaders. Callahan's has already put 30 credit union c-level executives through the course and are looking to enroll another 40 for this fall. Check it out and let us know your thoughts.

You all are in for a treat in this two-part interview with retiring Truliant Federal Credit Union President/CEO Marc Schaefer. Marc recently announced his retirement, occurring at the end of 2019, after 25 years serving as Truliant's leader.
In part one, we discussed the incredible growth the credit union experienced under Marc's watch (from $400 million/110,000 members to $2.5 billion/248,000 members), becoming North Carolina's third largest credit union with 33 branches to boot. He also discussed the credit union's rebranding efforts from AT&T Family Federal Credit Union to Truliant. Lastly, Marc recollected his part in the HR 1151 (Credit Union Membership Access Act) decision back in 1998, which had most of the industry very nervous to say the least. Obviously, it turned out well for credit unions and Marc was a big part of that. An amazing chat with an amazing human being who has devoted the better part of his life to credit unions. Our industry is that much better for it. So check it out and let us know your thoughts -- and part two is even better. So stay tuned!
