Once a year, Haberfeld hosts an annual symposium for our clients. Symposium is a great way for Haberfeld clients to connect with one another, learn from the Haberfeld experts, and have a lot of fun! We were very fortunate to sit down with Lori Loffler of Community Bank N.A. (NY), David Layton of First State Bank (TX), Brady Stratton of First Community Bank (UT), Debbie Arnold of Peoples Bank (AR), Kristi Thornton of West Gate Bank (NE), and Jenny Wofford of Pinnacle Bank (GA). Listen in as they share their symposium experience and we hope to see you in San Antonio for Symposium 2024!

It’s safe to say that every financial institution wants to grow. Well, growth isn’t something that happens overnight; it happens when one is consistently working towards it. This is where the Haberfeld HPG™ strategy comes in, but does it really work? The short answer is YES! Not only does it work, but there are countless advocates for this strategy. One of those advocates is Doug Carey who is a former Executive VP for West Gate Bank in Lincoln, NE. His experience, leadership, and humility helped West Gate Bank grow from 5 to 10 neighborhood branches in 15 years. Join Patrick and Susan as they chat with Doug Carey and Dr. Sean Payant to discover how Doug championed the HPG™ strategy over a long period of time.

Let’s face it: We’ve all had a leader that we never trusted, didn’t get along with, or weren’t supported by. The way the world works today, it’s crucial to have leaders in our organizations that build trust, inspire others, and promote growth. Join Patrick and Susan as they speak with Haberfeld’s Ben O’Neill and Ned Pauley about leadership’s true role in your FI’s growth. Here, Ben and Ned also offer their perspective on the best ways to help your leaders grow.
