Through independent research and innovation, the Filene Research Institute explores issues vital to the future of credit unions and consumer finance.


Filene's Ideas Grow Here

  1. Lunch with Ed

    Edbust

    UPDATEDLOGIN INFORMATION BELOW

    Edward Filene – ‘Ed’ as we affectionately call him around here – is the spiritual grandfather of American credit unions. Even though we named a research institute after him, he didn’t respond to our invitation for lunch. So we’re bringing his bust instead.

    Once a month for the foreseeable future you’re invited to join in as Filene staff discuss the latest research and innovation work at the Institute. First up on June 8, 12:00 PM (Central):

    We’ll talk about a unique credit union study that shows how to get employees and leaders connected on good ideas. HR, finance, ops – it doesn’t matter. This should be required reading or listening for every manager in credit unions.

    It’s 103% free, so if you want to attend, just sign up here.

  1. Is this a “in person” discussion or “dial in”?

  2. Sorry that wasn’t clear, Lynn. It is more of a Webinar, so you can listen in from wherever you are.

  3. The article I referred to in the discussion is entitled “On the Folly of Rewarding A While Hoping for B” by Steve Kerr. It is available here.

    We're annoyed by questions like this too, but we're even more annoyed by spam (except the yummy canned kind).
