Taking Initiative to Assist Members

Suggested Strategy: Focus your conversation around the third-party

perception when the teller does not take the initiative to assist members

immediately when they come in the door.

Suggested Questions:

→ Directive Coaching: We strive to assist our members as quickly as we can, and

when you wait for another teller to assist a

member when they come in the door, the

member may feel as though you do not

want to assist them. In order for you to be

successful in your position, it is imperative

that you take initiative to greet and assist

members as soon as they come in the

doors.

→ Success Imperative: What actions will you be committed to taking going forward to ensure that you are successful in creating positive first

impressions and relationships with our members?

Suggested Activities:

→ Teach Me: Ask the employee to walk you through what they would typically do when a member first comes into the branch. What about

that routine do they think they could improve to have a more positive

impact on members when they first enter the doors?
