Banking on a Human Scale

In a world dominated by scale and technology, smaller community-based financial institutions, like credit unions, have the chance to serve more people (and serve them better) by making banking more human. This presentation discusses a way forward that places banking on a human scale through unique and practical approaches to management, innovation, strategy and R&D.

Do Something Epic. On Your Terms.

Drawing from George's experience of biking across the USA on two separate occasions, he shares lessons learned, a few stories and how you can translate his experiences into creating your own epic adventure. By encouraging the audience to identify something they are passionate about and acting upon it, George will motivate you to take the appropriate journey for you in your personal and/or professional life.
