New Free Resources from Tim Harrington of TEAM Resources


New! Free Resource


Digital Self-Audit Questionaire

We've added a new free resource! 

Check out our Free Downloads page of the website. We recently added the Digital Self-Audit Questionnaire. You can use this useful tool in a variety of ways to find out how digital-ready you are to take on this challenging climate.

One way to do this is to distribute the questions to all of your participants ahead of time and have them bring their answers to your session. Then you can "calibrate" your scores and find out how synched your team is, where there is alignment and where there needs to be a discussion before action. 


TEAM Building from TEAM Resources

Now is NOT the time to 
forgo developing your teams and creating a more trusting and interdependent group!


Your teams are under stress and operating under extraordinary circumstances. This is all the more reason to take a collective breath and make sure they have the tools they need to understand and count on each other. You can maintain morale and increase engagement. And yes, you can do this effectively with online tools! (And it's far better than building towers out of straws and masking tape.)


We are endorsed by Paradigm Personality Labs to use the WorkPlace Big 5 Model of assessments to give team members a better understanding of each other and of how the group can interact under any circumstances. 




Coming Soon:
  • The May Blog: How to Spot a Board in Trouble
  • New Board Governance Video Series episodes
  • Expanded online training content and videos, including options for understanding credit union financials (one of Tim's particular specialties)

While you wait, check out our most recent Board Governance Video: 
How are you Adapting?

What Should Credit Unions Know About Stablecoins?

  Congress is considering new legislation around cryptocurrency, and these new tools could have profound implications for the industry. Andrew Lepczyk Creditunions.com Cryptocurrency is seemingly everywhere in 2025, including member’s  virtual “wallets .” A  2022 study from CUNA  – now known as America’s Credit Unions – found cryptocurrency ownership among credit union members stood at 39%, as opposed to 17% of the general population. In some ways this makes sense; many Americans who feel excluded from the traditional financial system are drawn to cryptocurrency, mirroring the relationship many members have with their credit union. While there are plenty of enthusiasts, cryptocurrency also has its detractors. Many dismiss crypto ownership as speculative, and cryptocurrency as nothing more than an overly risky, volatile asset. Public failures of companies like FTX have only made the critics louder. A  recent study from the Pew Research Center  found 63% of r...

Before You Push Send!

  The Art of Thoughtful Discourse in a Noisy World In an era where opinions flood every corner of social media, news platforms, and casual conversations, the sheer volume of voices can be both inspiring and overwhelming. Everyone seems to have something to say, and while it's a beautiful thing to witness such diverse perspectives, it raises an important question: how can we ensure that our contributions are meaningful and resonate with others? The Power of Evidence-Based Opinions At the heart of impactful communication lies the value of substantiation. Personal views are indeed intriguing and can spark engaging discussions. However, without solid evidence or context to support them, these opinions can quickly lose their potency. When we articulate our thoughts without backing them up, we risk contributing to the noise rather than enhancing the dialogue. To make meaningful contributions, it’s essential to prioritize reasoning over reflexivity. Taking the time to gathe...
