“You know the energy of the young people, I think the energy from that made me very happy,” he said. “I was very pleased with the trade show and the event. It was just a great kick off to the year.”

He stressed that it was important to reach out to the younger generation of mortgage originators not only to ensure their attendance but also to make them an integral part of the event. It’s one of the reasons he was so excited about getting a second chance to be NAMB president.

“It’s why I want to come back and do it, and to really lead us to turn it over to the younger generation,” White said. “I think that’s the thing. We’re evolving. NAMB is realizing that we want to bring up the younger generation. We want to bring younger professionals in, train them, bring them into the industry, and get them involved in NAMB and in the new leadership. I think that makes a big difference.”

One of his wishes for the industry is more cooperation, not only to improve the industry but also to get back to the focus at hand: helping make more homeowners.

“One of my last mentors said to me, ‘Always remember the honey and the whip,’” he said. “Too much of either, you can’t be successful. Just enough of each, and preferably more honey, and you’ll be known as a good leader. I think we have too much whip and not enough honey today. The honey is us showing compassion. Respect for others, and I carry that in everything I do, and I’m going to carry that this year.
