RMA Philly Presents - Turn the Great Resignation into Your Company’s Great Awakening 5/5/22
When: Virtually on May 5, 2022 from 09:00 AM to 10:30 AM
Join the Philadelphia Chapter of RMA for a Virtual Education Program. We’ve all heard of the Great Resignation, which has resulted from the historically high level of employee resignations over the past year. The pandemic has undoubtedly changed the landscape of work while serving as the catalyst for employees to reexamine what is meaningful for them – in their jobs and in their lives. Using this lens, you can recategorize the Great Resignation as the “Great Awakening.” Rather than seeing this phenomenon as a threat, forward-thinking companies are using it as an opportunity to think about the future of work and how they can keep their employees engaged and fulfilled.
Presenter:
Bobbi D. Kelly, Director-in-Charge, Talent Advisory
Kreischer Miller (Click HERE to Read More)
Objectives:
• Gain a deeper understanding of what is driving the Great Resignation
• Learn about the forces of disengagement and how to counter-balance them
• Discover how you can use data to attract, retain, and develop talent in your organization
• Learn about resources and next steps you can take to reduce your turnover, improve your company culture, and engage your workforce.

When: May 14, 2020 11:00 am - 12:15 pm
PORTFOLIO STRESS TESTING FOR THE PANDEMIC
Peter Cherpack, EVP Partner, Senior Director Credit Technology, Ardmore Banking Advisors (Click HERE to read Bio.)
Todd Sardich, Senior Vice President of Credit Risk Management Consulting
Ardmore Banking Advisors (Click HERE to read Bio.)
As the industry is embroiled in the worst economic crisis of a generation, the use of portfolio stress testing (“sensitivity shocks”) can help banks identify dangerous vulnerabilities and potential capital shortfall in their portfolios. By segmenting the portfolio into key CRE property types and C & I industry categories, and then simulating the impact of loss of income or collateral value on those borrowers, banks can get a directionally correct view of their potential critical areas to address as the crisis unfolds.
CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT BEST PRACTICES FOR COVID-19
Louis J. Dunham, Senior Vice President, Senior Director, Risk Management Consulting, Ardmore Banking Advisors (Click HERE to read Bio.)
There has NEVER been a crisis in the USA where “non-essential” businesses were forced to shut down nationwide. The root cause of this crisis isn’t an asset bubble like the great recession – it’s a public health emergency that is inflicting havoc on the entire U.S. economy. So are community and regional banks prepared and equipped to employ “Credit Risk Management Best Practices for COVID-19” or any other pandemic that comes our way?
