Competition to retain and win customers is stiff between banks and credit unions. Delivering a superior customer experience to members is one way credit unions work to distinguish themselves from a traditional bank.

An effective deployment of workforce optimization capabilities will allow you to continue to provide excellent service and even increase sales while carefully managing branch labor costs.
