"The most successful credit unions are those that have a shared clarity of purpose woven into their fabric and leaders who inspire and shape the future."

Gene Foley, President of Focus Strategy Group

Differentiate your credit union.

It starts with listening.

My work begins with listening. Let me know what you would like to achieve or what challenges you are facing and then we can determine if I can help. 

Services are individually customized to maximize your unique strengths, challenges, and goals and designed to provide new strategies to help you transform your credit union.  

I provide a breadth of experience, analysis, and critical thinking to help with any credit union problem or initiative. Along with consulting services, I can provide trend analysis, peer-to-peer comparisons, and strategic plan writing services.

Regular sessions are held directly with me, either one-on-one or in a group setting, via phone and video conferencing. In person meetings will become available when it is safe and practicable.
