BENEFITS

branch employee training and choreography for banks and credit unions.

The Element Group provides branch employee training for banks and credit unions that want to create more consultative, consistent customer and member experiences. Our training focuses on the human side of modern retail banking: how employees welcome visitors, guide conversations, work across roles, and use the branch environment as intended.

proper protocols

You can train your employees in a number of different ways, but each one isn't universal.

real world skills

Learning skills in a classroom is great, but it doesn't always help when it comes time to apply that knowledge to the branch floor.

employees take charge

Your employees will know more about branch problems than you do.

track progress

In order to measure performance, we want to monitor your employees' progress following training.

Connect Your Branch Strategy to Everyday Service

A branch can be beautifully designed and still fall short of its purpose if employees haven’t had the opportunity to practice how service should work.

Element helps financial institutions connect leadership’s vision for the customer or member experience to the behaviors people see on the branch floor. Training gives teams a shared framework while allowing employees to communicate naturally with the person in front of them.

What the Training Covers

Element’s training addresses the practical behaviors that shape the customer or member experience inside the branch. The program connects service expectations with the way employees communicate, collaborate, and use the physical environment.

  • Branch choreography
  • Consultative conversations
  • Customer and member experience
  • Roleplay and practical scenarios
  • Leadership alignment
  • Ongoing reinforcement

Who the Program is For

Element’s branch employee training is designed for banks and credit unions that want to move branch service from primarily transactional interactions toward more consultative customer and member relationships.

It is especially relevant when an institution is introducing a new service model, opening or renovating a branch, adapting an existing layout, or working to create a more consistent experience across its locations.

The work connects leadership’s intended experience with the day-to-day actions of the branch team.

We had a vision and everyone at Element bought into it right away with their customizations. Nothing Element did was off the shelf. What resulted was a welcoming space that physically shows our connectedness to the community and helps us deliver on our mission — to provide strong financial futures for Montanans.
