Strategic Considerations
- What is our core strength?
- What differentiates us from our competitors?
- What is our core value?
- Will we continue to focus on Income from Interest Spreads?
- What are the characteristics of the customers we serve today?
- What types of customers do we desire?
- If we have high employee turnover, do we learn from our new employees?
- If we have low turnover, how do we stay fresh?

Value Maximization Considerations
- Who is responsible in our organization for ensuring that we are maximizing short and long term value and income?
- Do they spend the time required to ensure that we are maximizing short- and long-term shareholder value?
- How does our income compare with our competitor's?
- Do our shareholders / owners recognize how our growth and income compare with our peers.
- When people, either inside or outside our organization, offer ways to increase value and income, do we listen?
- Do we know with which customers we make money and which customers cost us net income?
- Do we implement fees that irritate our most profitable customers?
- Do we use management reports to track our own financial performance?
- When we make investments, how does our performance track to the promise made?
- Do we consider projects based on the value they provide?
