Callahan Speakers Bureau
| "I just had to tell you that your
presentation was truly outstanding. I was immensely impressed
- with your message, your thoughtful articulation of our challenges,
and for your case for passion in credit unions. For those of
us who've been in this movement for many years, I share many
of your perspectives and concerns. I wish everyone in the movement
could have heard your thoughts." |
An important area of cooperation for credit unions is learning
together. From strategic planning meetings with boards and staffs,
to CEO roundtables, league planning sessions or user meetings, Callahan
personnel have been asked to provide insight and assistance.
Our speaking topics are educational. We use
custom data and strategic issues from our firm to provide the basis
of our talks.
Speaking at the Level of the Audience
The professional backgrounds of attendees at credit union meetings
can range from the most expert CEO to the novice board member still
trying to understand what a credit union does.
We use slides and data that will be appropriate for the experience
level of the audience. For example with CFO's we will discuss issues
of different cost management approaches and what new business models
would look like. For board members, we will prepare charts and graphs
that show trends that can be understood by everyone.
Creating Content for Your Event
We use Callahan & Associates data from our Peer-to-Peer software
program to document all key trends. Case studies from outside the
credit union system are included to illustrate points. In addition,
we will use examples from our consulting to illustrate how credit
unions implement strategic concepts.
