Tom Geisel was featured this September in NJ Biz and their "Question of the Day". The question posed to Mr. Geisel was: If you were given the ability to do one thing to help your individual sector or industry, what would you do?

His answer?

"I would work on the tax system. I think that is a psychological as well as financial issue. You can accomplish two things with that one change. That would be a major driver. It would be nice have something that people could immediately feel the impact from — both financially and psychologically."

Geisel: More Financial Executives Should Be On Twitter

1:24 PM Unknown 0 Comments

There's a lot of reasons why some business professionals don't want anything to do with social media. It leaves behind a permanent footprint, personal privacy is a constant battle, and after all, who wants to be bombarded with notifications and friend requests and a whole bunch of things that aren't really necessary to daily existence...


BUT, you should be on Twitter; ESPECIALLY if you work in the finance industry.

A few years ago, Thomas X. Geisel, a financial services executive in New York, wrote an article in American Banker discussing this very subject and advocating that more executives should be using the network for the most up-to-the-minute information.

Q&A with Thomas Geisel and South Jersey Business

7:35 AM Unknown 0 Comments

Originally published July 2011 by Alexandra Harcharek. Read the original article containing the complete Q&A with financial services executive Tom Geisel here.
Q: How do you build strong client relationships? 
A: We have the best of both worlds as an organization. Because of our size, we have products and services that some of the larger institutions have, but our distribution is a community banking model. We get to sit and talk with our clients all the time, to interact with them in the community. Something we do differently is relationship review sessions with our customers, to discuss what’s going on in the industry and how we can help them.
Q: Any business advice you live by? 
A: Mindset is everything. If you work hard enough and you’re not deterred or distracted by short term setbacks, you can actually control your own destiny.
Q: What business book would you recommend? 
A: I believe you can learn a lot more from philosophy and history—things that can teach you life, more than business principals. I frequently read Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, by the philosopher and Roman emperor; a series of passages dealing with spiritual and ethical insights.
Q: What’s in your briefcase? 
A: I travel very light. Give me my iPhone, wallet, business cards, pen and paper and some catch-up reading and I’m good.
Q: Any little-known hobbies? 
A: I used to ride sport motorcycles. I had two Ducatis, a Honda and a Kawasaki.
