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


Need Help Attracting Gen Y?

Following 18 months of research on young adults with CU Tomorrow, Filene has contracted Brent Dixon to offer a limited number of advisory engagements for credit unions that seek a new generation of credit union members, employees, or board directors. 

There are three ways to engage with Brent:  

  • Speak—If your credit union meeting needs objective, up-to-the-minute insights about young adults' financial needs, Brent can customize a presentation to address your specific questions. Available topics range from social media to generational marketing to attracting volunteers ... and more.
  • Advise—Financial literacy won’t connect young adults to credit unions if the credit unions don’t offer the products they need. A top-to-bottom products and services review examines delivery systems, loan products, savings products, and transaction products. Brent will help devise recommendations based on local needs and demographic trends.
  • Recruit—One of the most sustainable solutions for attracting a generations of young members is to attract a generation of young leaders, managers, and volunteers. Brent works with senior leadership to build a targeted recruitment plan for entry-level professionals, MBAs, or young directors.
