Musings from the CU Suite

Your NAFCU Weekend Reading Pile

Compiled by Anthony Demangone, Powered by NAFCU

A few years ago, I took a quick class on Excel. I thought I understood what it could do, but the training unlocked a ton of usefulness. I recommend that you find time for a quick class on the five apps or programs that you use the most. (Email, spreadsheet, PPT, etc.)

Along those lines, we offer a NAFCU 101 for members and non-members. Give us 15 minutes, and we’ll make sure you and your team get the most out of what we offer. Shoot me an email and I’ll be happy to set it up. (ademangone@nafcu.org)

Now, on to this week’s reading pile!

  • Limitless. (Godin)
  • Top 50 uses of Blockchain. (Forbes)
  • Collaborating during Coronavirus: The Impact of COVID-19 on the Nature of Work. (NBER)
