A CURATED JOURNEY FOR CREDIT UNION LEADERS


WHY PARIS? WHY NOW?

Because you deserve more than one more conference ballroom.

The TwoScore Paris Peer Experience was created for credit union leaders who want space to step back, breathe, and reconnect with themselves and each other. 

No panels. No PowerPoints. No lanyards. No vendor noise.
Just time, perspective, and real conversations with fellow leaders who understand exactly what you're facing. Paris has always been part of the TwoScore story. It's where the idea for our company first came alive and where we return when we need clarity and new ideas. This experience gives you the chance to do the same.


What’s Included

Arrival Day

  • Welcome Reception - raise a glass with new friends as we settle into Paris

  • Casual Dinner - A shared meal in one of Paris’s classic brasseries - food, wine, story together

  • After dinner, Amanda will lead the group on an evening walk through the neighborhood to watch the Eiffel Tower’s magical glittering light show - a simple, unforgettable Paris moment to close out the first night together

Facilitated Peer Roundtable
Unlike conference roundtables, our peer session is built on existing trust - everyone in the room already works with TwoScore. That creates honesty, shared vulnerability, and real problem-solving, which you only get when people know they are speaking to allies, not strangers. And because we gather your questions ahead of time, topics are relevant, personal, and immediately usable - not generic themes chosen months in advance.

Veuve Clicquot Leadership Day

  • A private group experience in Reims, France (just a 45-minute train from Paris), including:

  • A private two-hour tour in the UNESCO World-Heritage-listed cellars

  • Innovation storytelling through Madame Clicquot’s legacy, a visionary whose bold ideas revolutionized the world of champagne

  • A tasting of four champagnes, specially selected for our group by the Maison

  • A group lunch in Reims

YOUR HOSTS

Amanda Thomas

Founder & CEO
(and Dreamer in Chief)

Amanda started TwoScore with a sketchbook, a spark, and a glass of champagne in Paris, and turned that moment into a decade of helping credit unions grow with heart. She’s here to pour the champagne, ask the questions that get under the surface, and make sure no one forgets that clarity and courage are muscles we build when we step outside our everyday lives. If you’re deciding between two choices on a menu — or in your credit union — ask her. She’ll always point you toward the one that feels a little braver.

Liz Garster

Senior Vice President
(and Keeper of the Good Conversations)

Liz has been Amanda’s right hand and steady north star for over ten years — long enough to know when a credit union needs a nudge, a cheerleader, or a lightning bolt of creativity. She brings humor, real talk, and the kind of grounded curiosity that makes you feel instantly at ease. In Paris, she’ll happily map your afternoon to a tucked-away bookstore, tell you which croque madame she’d fly across the ocean for, and debate whether the best stories come before or after dessert. If something sparks for you this week, she’s probably the first person you’ll want to process it with.

Chelsey Garster

Client Experience Concierge & Bubble Session Architect.

If you’ve felt the magic of TwoScore’s newer experiences — especially our Bubble Sessions — you’ve been touched by Chelsey’s brilliance. She builds bridges between what we do and how people feel, pulling from her background in real estate, her obsession with intentional branding, and her gift for knowing exactly what a moment needs. In Paris, she is your go-to for museum secrets, late-night jazz spots, and the quiet corners where you can journal or people-watch like a Parisian. She’s the one who makes everything feel thoughtfully designed — even when it’s just a walk to get a pastry.

Hershel Elkins

Chief of Making Things Work (and Amanda’s favorite travel partner)

Herschel has been TwoScore’s behind-the-scenes fixer, steadier, and problem-solver-in-residence for years — but now that he’s fully retired from both the State of Ohio and the Army, we finally get him full-time. Which is great news, because he’s the guy who quietly makes the complicated look easy as our Chief Operations Officer. He also happens to be Amanda’s husband, which means he’s seen the TwoScore story unfold over many a champagne toast. In Paris, he’s your unofficial concierge for the best croissant in the world, If something needs to be handled, fixed, solved, or smoothed - Herschel’s already halfway done with it.

PARIS TO PRACTICE

Unlike most conferences, this isn’t four days of ideas that evaporate on Monday morning.

Participants build a working action plan during the trip — grounded in peer-tested ideas — and TwoScore facilitates structured follow-up throughout the year.

That means credit unions can expect visible behavior change, embedded learning, and measurable impact on how they serve members, manage growth, and lead teams

This experience doesn’t end in Paris. It begins there.
Credit union leaders return home with clarity, energy, and ideas —and TwoScore is committed to helping them turn that spark into lasting impact. Here’s what the next year looks like:.

  • Build a personal action plan rooted in real challenges

  • Identify next steps, priorities, and obstacles

  • Connect with a peer cohort who will support your progress

  • Capture insights and commitments in your reflection guide

  • Share early wins

  • Troubleshoot execution blockers

  • Reset priorities based on real-world realities

  • Light-touch accountability (no homework — just honesty)
