Restoring Trust: Banking’s Top Priority in an Uncertain World

restoring-trust-in-banks-360viewcrm

Whenever a bank fails, it’s bad news for the entire sector. Customers get nervous and start asking questions: Can I trust my bank? What if this happens to my money? How do I know if my bank is secure? If they’re not 100% confident, they may move their money out of their bank, or to an institution that feels more secure.

Early 2023 saw some headline-grabbing bank failures around the world, from local and niche institutions like First Republic and Silicon Valley Bank to major international players like Credit Suisse.

Are you wondering if employee goals and incentive programs make a substantive difference? It’s a fair question. They do, and they do it in a couple of important ways.

In a survey of US bankers, 84% of respondents who currently have an employee incentive plan in place said their incentive plan has increased sales within their organization and increased employee engagement by encouraging better profiling, cross-selling, and referrals to other lines of business.

Banks and credit unions set goals and create incentives to reach those goals every year for their institutions; not all of them afford the same focus for employee goals and incentives. If that’s you, it’s time for a change.

Here are four ways to fine tune your employee goals and incentives program.
