Financial Services
As a financial services leader, you’re challenged to balance the support your people provide with technology to deliver on trust, service, and value with customers who expect instant access to and 24/7 support for their accounts.
Operational efficiency is a competitive advantage.
Does your financial service organization understand how your customers prefer to interact with you? Your mix of in-person and online activities? When and how each activity must be performed? How are you balancing high-tech solutions with still-essential high-touch customer support?
That’s where Daniel Penn Associates (DPA) comes in.
