UN-CONVENTIONAL
THINKING
Be unconventional. If you must follow convention,
you are doomed to conventional results.
Perhaps American Poet Robert Frost penned the most profound metaphor for UN-Conventional
Thinking in his epic work The Road Not Taken. Faced with a proverbial fork in the road, the subject
of his poem chooses the path less traveled … and that, he says, has made all the difference.
There’s no question banking today is at a crossroads and that choosing the right path will take
a great measure of UN-Conventional Thought. Making that choice based on what has been
done in the past hardly guarantees success. In fact, conforming to the same old ways
will more likely lead to failure.
Join us this summer as we contemplate what lies ahead on the road less traveled at this
UN-Conventional gathering of nearly 700 banking industry executives and friends.
