Dan Thurmon Opening Keynote

Every day, we are inundated with messages about the importance of finding ''balance'' in our lives. How does this make us feel? Overwhelmed, out of touch, and unfulfilled. The problem isn't us--it's the message. Perfect balance is unachievable and, upon closer inspection, undesirable. The perpetual quest for balance ends up limiting growth, progress, and the quality of life.

In Off Balance On Purpose, Dan Thurmon frees you from the ''balance'' dilemma and empowers you to adopt a new approach to creating a happy, fulfilling life: embrace reality, get aligned with your purpose, lean forward, and initiate positive changes. These steps will give you the knowledge, strength, and motivation to

  • Accept and take advantage of the contradictions in your daily life
  • Integrate the five vital areas of life--work, relationships, health, spiritual growth, and personal interests--into a workable, fluid, sustaining pattern
  • Adopt a practical, concrete process for orchestrating changes and staying aligned with your purpose

Elevate Your Auto Lending Horizons with Competitive Attributes & Pricing

Auto sales declined in 2018 for the first time since the Great Recession. Yet, many CUs are seeing spectacular growth in their auto loan portfolio. What is their secret? Proper risk-based pricing, says John Flynn of Open Lending. The problem is that too many CUs do not segment their risk-based pricing models effectively and as a result they are turning away some of their most profitable members and not pricing their loans competitively. Find out how some of the top CUs are generating yields 4-6 times on their net ROA using the strategies John Flynn outlines in this powerful session.

Find out how to:

  • Tackle today’s toughest challenges with effective risk-based pricing and book 20%-40% more auto loans without changing your marketing.
  • Properly assess and mitigate your CU’s risk.
  • Harvest existing revenue opportunities using the same techniques others are using to add $1,000 on every deal.
  • Confidently and effectively manage the risks and rewards for maximum returns to your CU – and save your members up to 400-500 bps.
  • Streamline the credit-decision process and respond to members with a quote in as little as 7 seconds.
