COVID-19

What does Sir Isaac Newton and your financial institution have in common?

In 1665, following an outbreak of the bubonic plague in England, Cambridge University closed its doors, forcing Newton to return home to Woolsthorpe Manor. While sitting in the garden there one day, he saw an apple fall from a tree, providing him with the inspiration to eventually formulate his law of universal gravitation. Newton later relayed the apple story to William Stukeley, who included it in a book, “Memoir of Sir Isaac Newton’s Life,” published in 1752.


It sounds familiar, doesn't it?
These are definitely trying times for all of us. The outbreak of COVID-19 is forcing all of us to rethink how we live, work, connect, and serve. It's very likely that your financial institution has had to rethink branch coverage, remote work options, sick leave, etc.  
 

Now is the ideal time to help your employees develop their skills!

Why? Because we are all being forced to become creative. How can we still serve our customers/members? How can we still support each other? How can I still lead my team? How can I continue to learn? These are important questions that we are all having to answer.
