DakCU is thrilled to announce several more presenters and topics for this year’s New Ideas Conference on September 24 – 25 in Bismarck/Mandan! NEW! Nick Brown, Founder of SalesCU. The explosion of technology in the financial services industry has made accessing accounts much easier and more convenient for members and customers. Still, most solutions aren’t designed to replace employees but to assist them in serving and capturing their members more effectively. AND, while consumers are progressively moving to digital channels to manage their finances, they still prefer human interaction. In fact, many say they are more willing to be sold new or upgraded products in face-to-face interactions. However, without proper sales training, these innovations are utterly ineffective! Are you ready to learn how your credit union can develop a value-driven culture for your members? In this session we’ll discuss consumer expectations, and how you and your team can amplify product penetration for peak performance! NEW! Deb Schuelke, Senior Communication Consultant, Rose Group International (RGI). Deb has focused her efforts on helping leaders understand how to apply effective communication strategies to build relationships, increase employee engagement and satisfaction, and positively impact all kinds of organizational goals. With deep experience as a communication educator, she advocates for strategies that incorporate a wide range of sociological and psychological theories to ensure that leaders aren’t chasing fads but are engaged in strategies that actually work. Organizations experience chaos at many levels, ranging from a PR emergency to a change in leadership to an employee that is unexpectedly absent. How can leaders manage this chaos effectively? This session will offer actionable insights into strategizing effective communication in your organization, both on a regular basis and in times of chaos, engaging participants in a variety of scenarios where communication should be thoughtfully developed. NEW TOPIC! CyberSecurity by SBS. The world of technology is very different today than it was just five years ago – and we need to be prepared for what is coming! From the technologies we use now to the threats we face every day, such as ransomware and compromised emails, to the way we protect our data, the cybersecurity landscape will continue to change rapidly. In this session, we’ll discuss the continued evolution and trends in cybersecurity likely to occur in the next few years, including: cloud computing adoption; continued reliance on vendors; machine learning and AI; advanced cybersecurity controls and automation; and customer adoption of technologies. OTHER FEATURED PRESENTERS!
