Our Speaking Experience

  • I had the distinct pleasure of hosting a panel discussion at our national conference with Lisa a panelist. We spent several hours together prior to the event, and I was genuinely impressed with Lisa’s vision for lending as an experience. She truly understands user-centered design thinking, digital transformation, and how important being innovative is to keeping credit unions relevant. Then she absolutely crushed it as a speaker and panelist! Would encourage having Lisa as a speaker anytime.

  • Lisa was a keynote speaker at my Future Branches conference in Austin Texas this past November. She brought an amazing energy to the stage and shared tons of useful information with our audience about her credit union's approach to CX. And she was a pleasure to work with both in the lead up to the event and during the event itself. I can't recommend her enough as a speaker. If you are looking for someone that combines great content with a fantastic stage presence, look no further than Lisa!
