Let’s Talk About Tellers
How have their behavioral needs changed?
What Hasn’t Changed for Tellers
The transactional part of the job Attention to detail and
process The need for exact
transactions Do it right the first
time Able to handle
repetition
Lower A
Higher D
What Has Changed for Tellers
The personal connectivity part of the job Becoming more outgoing
and persuasive—adding the social element (but not pushy)
Open in communication Team-oriented Able to deal with more
variety and change (technology, etc.)
Smoother succession to Asst. Branch Management position
Lower B Higher C
Here’s the OverreactionBanks went from here….
To here….YIKES!
Tellers that cannot properly process transactions
Tellers who don’t follow the rules
Teller that round up at the end of the day
Unhappy customers Massive turnover
It's important to reexamine how banks select, train, and retain tellers in an effort to reduce an alarmingly high turnover rate.
How You Can Avoid The Same Mistake?
The PI Survey Defines a person’s
behaviors in various situations
The JOB PRO Defines the critical
demands of each job
REMEMBER: “Knowledge is becoming a key asset and source of competitive advantage.”
John Owens, Director RSM McGladrey, Inc.
What Can You Do to be Better Positioned?
Understand the strengths needed for tellers have changed But the change in who you hire need not be too
dramatic Always be recruiting… even when there are no
openings. Look at other industries outside of banking:
Retail Call Centers Customer Service
Never settle when you hire. There are no neutral hires.
Thank You!
