Berger to Americans: Stand together during coronavirus pandemic
"The challenges that lay ahead are no match for the will and perseverance of the American spirit. This belief has never been truer than it is today," wrote NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger in an editorial published in CEO World.
As the coronavirus outbreak continues to impact our economy and the everyday lives of the American people, Berger penned an opinion piece to encourage our nation to remain united and stand together during these uncertain times.
"It is, like the pandemics before it, threatening our nation and the social fabric of our communities as we have come to know them," wrote Berger. "[But] with this bad can come a lot of good. Everyone – and I mean everyone – has a part to play in making sure we get through this and that we come out better."
Berger went on to encourage readers to soldier on and be the best versions of themselves for their fellow Americans. "Our mission right now is to do our best, to be our best, and to make the sacrifices necessary. Because, as the saying goes, 'a rising tide lifts all boats,'" said Berger.
"We have been down similar roads before. From SARS, to Hurricane Katrina, to the financial crisis of 2008. But Americans have always risen to the occasion and come out better on the other side. So let’s not lose sight of who we are and what we can accomplish. Let’s rise together. Because, together, we’ve got this," concluded Berger.

[02:27] Having a leader who can really communicate cyber risks and understand how ready that institution is to deal with cyber events is incredibly important. [05:36] We need to be talking about risk openly. We need to be documenting and really understanding what remediating risk looks like and how you do that strategically.
