Blockbuster was slow to adapt to the shift in their business from brick and mortar to online.Dell was slow to adapt to the commoditization of the personal computer and resisted putting their computers in stores for years
Paper money is on the decline. We can expect mobile payments to hasten this decline
Why are we ripe for a shift? Industry is behind in technology adoption and architecture.We tend to take a wait and see approach which won’t work anymore because technology moves so quickly that wait and see will become wait and see ya later
Past 125 years have seen more change than the previous 5,000 in human historyTechnology is being adopted faster with every new technology that is introduced. The iPad and Xbox Kinect further illustrate this point

Discuss the branch model, need numbers around branch traffic decreasing overtime.Discuss not viewing online/mobile/ecomm/eServices as an alternative channel anymore. View it as a primary. For many members this is how they interact with you.Startups don’t have the constraints of Legacy systems. They have the benefit of developing from the ground up.Core technologies are 15-20 year old technology. They were never intended to be used in the way it is being used and the data structure is showing its age. Technology is typically viewed as a Cost center/versus revenue generation center.

Create a user experience so compelling that members will be telling their friends about it.Apple as an example – iPad; iPhoneCreated a product offering where non existed before. Were brave enough to give consumers something that didn’t know they needed but that enriched their lives and was easy to use. Smartphones were nothing new in 2007, they were just horrible experiences. Apple changed that forever by making it so easy to use a manual isn’t required. They did the same thing with the iPad. They’ve made technology so easy to use that anyone can use it and nobody feels intimidated by it. That’s the philosophy we should live by.Discuss how some simple user experience changes increased our online account openings in 2010 130%. 2011 is projected to increase another 33% over 2010.
