What do you get when you mix auto loan programs with a desire to help others? Well, approaches that make a difference, of course. So what do you get when you take an environmentalist and toss him into the mix?
...
Say hello to Joe Winn. He’s the president of GreenProfit Solutions and graduated with a Masters in Marine Policy from University of Miami, but titles aren’t where you learn about a person. For that, it’s best to look at what they believe, what they have done. Joe is indeed an environmentalist; his 1st grade project “How to Save the World” showed that quite early. Since then, he’s drifted below the waves as a certified Divemaster, volunteered for whale and dolphin strandings, presented to high schoolers and grown ups alike on our local ecology, and served on numerous non-profit boards.
But credit unions don’t run SCUBA trips, nor do they rescue manatees. They do, however, focus on their members. And isn’t the measure of a successful institution how well you do at helping your members grow and succeed?
Joe channels a creative force for good into new ways of approaching old problems. Like auto loan growth. Or indirect member engagement. Both of which he has co-authored white papers. He’s also produced (and given) presentations for the Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Kentucky CU Leagues. Not too shabby for an environmentalist. And he’s also a geek. Build a computer from the ground up, he will. These days, he puts that skillset into running a blog called Credit Union Geek. Can you guess the writer?
Above or below the waves, Joe is eager to grow and lend a helping fin…ahem, hand.
