Founder’s Article: “Education Can Replenish The Talent Pool”

Our founder Paul Gigliotti recently had an article in the Scotsman Guide May 2021 about the importance of education and how it can bridge the opportunity gap in the Mortgage & Lending Industry.

Our favorite quote from the article?

“Integrating technology in the right way offers the ability to look at the functions in the loan process as three-dimensional. It’s not just about dotting i’s and crossing t’s — it’s about using technology to deepen relationships, and to communicate internally across teams and externally to the consumer.

For instance, incorporating a marketing operating system that cross-integrates with point-of-sale and loan origination software systems gives a team a competitive advantage, not only in how the business functions but in developing deeper connections. Mortgage professionals who are educated and empowered will understand and welcome the opportunity to use technology in this way. The mortgage industry is at a pivotal point. In the decades to come, as team members are aging into retirement and as technology continues to evolve to power the loan process, the industry is increasingly faced with the challenge to replenish talent and connect with clients in new ways. There’s no better time than now to utilize technological innovations to establish more authentic communications. More importantly, tech tools can leverage education to deepen relationships with consumers and industry peers.

Ultimately, education has the power to elevate mortgage professionals, the industry and the consumer. Nothing changes someone’s life more than access to education.”

We are proud to have his vision and voice as a core part of the Axis Lending Academy Team.
