Bank executives at Exchange, a $2.2 billion-asset bank, invested in project management technology that has allowed workers to operate at a higher level of efficiency. An added bonus is that the digital work management tools have made Exchange a more attractive place for millennials to work. Like many community banks, Exchange lacked dedicated project management staff and processes. The improvements have also helped in recruitment and retention of employees. Furthermore, documentation compliance has become more streamlined and productivity has improved.
Key Takeaways:
