The CUInsight Network

“If your members are successful, the credit union is also successful.” - Shyam Pradheep

Thank you for tuning in to episode 49 of The CUInsight Network, with your host, Lauren Culp, Publisher & CEO of CUInsight.com. In The CUInsight Network, we take a deeper dive with the thought leaders who support the credit union community. We discuss issues and challenges facing credit unions and identify best practices to learn and grow together.

My guest on today’s show is Shyam Pradheep, General Manager at Zogo. Shyam joined Zogo early on, when it was still an idea between college friends. Starting as an intern, Shyam has had the opportunity to work in all areas of this start-up and now oversees each department as they have grown. Zogo believes in making education accessible, specifically focusing on financial literacy. They focus on three pillars to do so by making it easily available, comprehensible, and engaging. Zogo’s gamified mobile integration is sure to help financial services effectively engage Gen Z, millennials, and users of all ages in financial education.

During our conversation, Shyam talks about why Zogo believes financial literacy is the backbone of financial success. He shares tools and resources that Zogo offers credit unions to engage members and enhance their learning. Through gamification, members can easily understand where they stand with their finances and how to improve. Shyam shares how Zogo plans to continue innovating and evolving to meet the needs of credit unions and their members.

As we wrap up the episode, Shyam talks about why his team amazes him, which episode of the Acquired podcast people should check out, and which book he recommends for everyone to read. Enjoy my conversation with Shyam Pradheep!
