NAFCU's Weekend Reading Pile
Compiled by Anthony Demangone, Powered by NAFCU
It was a great week in Greenville, SC, where NAFCU hosted its Strategic Growth Conference. There was a great discussion all week about how you can balance technology and humanity - balancing the digital and analog worlds.
And I just had it happen to me. I'm sitting in the Greenville airport, and there's no gate assigned for my flight back to DC. So I set an alarm to remind myself to get up and check on the gate in about 30 minutes. But then I got this text...
A small piece of technology - a text - removed a little bit of friction in my life.
Now...on to this week's reading pile.
