Life can be a whirlwind and these days two things come to mind: change and inspiration. Personally, and professionally, we go through an extraordinary amount of change, and it helps us grow and builds our strength for the next change.

Dear Credit Union Executives,I’m a teller. I’m the first person that our members see when they enter our branch. My warm hello and friendly smile set the tone for how people feel walking in. I know our members through and through. From their sick furry family members to their children’s first program at school … I listen. I remember. I know their accounts like it is my own. I learn about their money habits and serve them by offering products that will help them succeed.

With many Americans living paycheck to paycheck, this program helps make ends meet.

Credit union members who don’t have a traditional job that allows them the flexibility of remote or hybrid work may be particularly susceptible to work-from-home scams. According to First Line of Defense, which provides low-cost online fraud prevention training to credit unions, people are most likely to search for a new job in the first two months of the year.
