This week LESA spoke with Jay Krushell, a facilitator for our upcoming Advanced Lender seminar. In our interview, Krushell described his excitement about this unique seminar format that is designed to facilitate discussion between experienced practitioners who practice exclusively or predominately in banking and finance.
In Krushell’s words, this seminar will provide a “unique opportunity for senior practitioners to get together and talk about the issues in our area of practice.” While several seminar facilitators have preselected topics and will help guide the discussion, Krushell indicated the “dialogue should be spontaneous” with the intention that “discussions will move to the hot button topics that are really top of mind for the people in the room.”
Rather than follow a more traditional seminar format that sees presenters doing most of the talking, this seminar will involve interactive discussion between practitioners with expertise in banking and finance. As such, an agenda with topics and discussion points will be sent to seminar attendees 7 to 10 days before the seminar. This will give you, the attendee, a chance to think about the topics and come prepared with questions, anecdotes, and hopefully solutions to some of the issues being discussed. Seeing the agenda in advance will also give you an opportunity to think about other topics and issues you would like to address at the seminar.
This seminar’s interactive discussion format aims to help senior practitioners understand the perspectives and viewpoints of their colleagues. As Krushell explains, “we all do work in our own little silos, and I think the chance to get in there with other senior practitioners to talk about these issues and get their input … is going to be invaluable for everyone who attends.”
