1:00 p.m.  Is 2021 Really in the Rear View?
Keith Prather, Managing Director, Armada Corporate Intelligence, Lawrence, Kan.
Now that we have entered 2022, are we seeing the progress we hoped for? What issues are still affecting the economy? Where has there been some progress? What are the new concerns? Inflation, labor shortages, supply chain disruption and the pandemic are still playing havoc with the system, but there has also been some good news in terms of growth—especially in the agricultural sector. During his 10-plus years as Armada’s primary strategist, company co-founder Keith Prather has worked with Fortune 500 companies on everything from merger and acquisition strategy to key account management, strategic planning and corporate marketing efforts. Prather is a former chief financial officer and has an extensive background in data analysis. Click here to view Keith's presentation.

2:30 p.m.  EMERGING LEADERS: Leading and Inspiring—Seasoned Banker Panel
Are you tired of hearing about “unprecedented times?” Don’t you miss the days when times were, well, “precedented?” Us, too. Banks today are faced with ongoing and ever-evolving challenges—from COVID to CRA, fintech to workforce, and cryptocurrency to cybersecurity. During this panel discussion, top-ranking leaders from SDBA member banks will share their insights on all things banking. Come prepared to ask the experts your banking and leadership questions.

3:30 p.m.  EMERGING LEADERS: I DO! How to Engage with Your Lawmakers
How do you make your voice heard on the policies impacting the banking industry? Civic engagement is at an all-time high. But, this flurry of activity begs the question: How do I properly and effectively connect with my legislators or congressional delegation? Your elected officials need to hear from you. Policymakers depend on receiving guidance and accurate, current and reliable information from their constituents when deciding how to vote on important issues. This
session will arm you with ideas on how you can strategically and effectively navigate these ever-changing waters, and hopefully, influence the tides of change.

4:00 p.m.  EMERGING LEADERS: Buzz Sessions
Join your colleagues in this fast-paced networking opportunity. Connect with old friends, meet some new friends, and even learn a thing or two along the way.
