The Speed of Trust - Can Credit Unions Leverage Member Loyalty?
Determining just how much we deserve the trust given to us by others is a starting point in any relationship. In serving the current and potential population of credit union members, boards and management should know just where they stand. The Speed of Trust, presented by a Stephen R. Covey speaker, encourages credit unions to gauge themselves as they serve growing communities. Attendees will receive a complimentary copy of the book.

Consumer Poll Market - Opportunities in the Mid-Atlantic Region
Political analyst Jeff Trammell provides insight and context for Credit Unions in market trends in the Mid-Atlantic region, using data from MDDCCUA's annually-commissioned consumer poll to help CUs determine new market opportunities and widest reach.
Herb Yolles of NCUA’s Region II will interpret the regulatory obligations involved in serving emerging markets.

Opportunities & Obligations - Underserved Markets & Communities
Cliff Rosenthal of the National Federation of Community Development Credit Unions (NFCDCU) and Bill Myers, field coach for REAL Solutions and the former CEO of Alternatives FCU, uncover some of the opportunities and obligations in developing future strategies within untapped markets. Credit union participants will be led in a discussion of outreach strategies into low wealth, unbanked, urban populations.

Understanding the Market: -  Where Does Your CU Go From Here?
Assistant Professor Jessica Gordon Nembhard is an political economist in the University of Maryland's African American Studies Department, and co-founder of The Democracy Collaborative. As a specialist in economic development policy and the political economy, she will lead a discussion on community- and asset-based economic development, educational development strategies, wealth accumulation in communities of color, and popular economic literacy.
