Team Building, Strategy, New Hire Orientation all can benefit from the use of personality profile tools like Strengths Finders. If you have not heard of this tool, it's in over 500 countries in 50 different languages and gives credit union employees and their managers a common language that describes their God given talents and helps to break down barriers and build trust on teams old and new. 

VLN Fall Class got the assignment of listening in to see if you can use SF assessments for Strategy and Team Building before their upcoming leadership development program- a hello to the Fall class of 2021!

Finally we got to play my favorite game (Scott) What's in the box which is probably my favorite game because it's my box and I know what's in it :) Also it's made of birch wood...I digress.

Business Development is an area seldom explored by credit unions. On this episode of the Credit Union Leadership podcast we get Mike Neill, Executive Director and Founder of ServiStar Consulting asking Taylor Murray, Cheif Executive Officer at ServiStar and Scott Albrecht, producer of this podcast and AVP of Sales/Training about the topic of going out of the credit union doors figuratively or literally to share the benefit of credit union membership with eligible non members, businesses, partners, and co-operatives who value the opportunity to work together to serve a bigger purpose. 

On this episode we offered a free discover call to learn how you can do Business Development at your credit union. Book that call with Taylor or Scott here https://go.oncehub.com/ServiStarConsulting

Why managing simply isn't enough to be a complete leader and what distinct differences you can observe between management and coaching. Taylor Murray, the Chief Executive Officer of ServiStar, kicks off this podcast with a series of questions answered by producer and AVP of Sales and Service, Scott Albrecht.

This one goes deep, so deep we should probably charge for it...but instead we added additional free ways for you to improve your coaching by contacting one of us using this link here. https://go.oncehub.com/ServiStarConsulting

Don't let this opportunity pass by to hear what credit unions around the country are cooking up in there coaching kitchen as a result of this great resource..we train culture and that all leads back to coaching at the end of the day.
