STRATEGIC PLANNING
You will never go back to your traditional strategic planning process — ever again
“Historically, the leadership team would spend months (plus two days together in person) struggling over a 50+ page annual strategic plan. Today, it’s a one-pager. And we’re now a working, functioning leadership team that is very engaged in the strategic direction we are following. We know what to focus on."
Barb Koopman
Senior Vice PresidentMetaBank
CROSS-SALES
Be the only bank your customer ever needs — take the words “trusted advisor” beyond lip service
“The Emmerich Group has changed our outlook on our employees, customers and developing relationships with our customers. We’ve doubled our cross sales, up to 5.6 cross-sales per customer now.”
Brad Cunningham
Vice President & Senior LenderFarmers Bank

We not only met EVERY goal in ALL our branches, but we exceeded many of our goals by 100 percent! Our entire organization acts like a team! I can’t imagine any CEO who wouldn’t want this.
