Verint will participate in three sessions:
Verint’s Chris Zaske, global vice president, strategic operations, will be part of a panel called “Leveraging Innovative Technology to Transform the Branch” on October 13 at 11:30 PDT. While the growth of mobile and online banking is changing how customers bank, most new products are still purchased at the branch. With customer preferences evolving, financial institutions need to define how the traditional branch role can strengthen their relationships. If designed correctly, a branch can serve as a testing ground for new technology, mobile banking, digital messaging and more efficient staff strategies. Branch experts will discuss how to discover emerging technologies being implemented within the branch, optimize roles and responsibilities for branch staff, the ways technology is improving interactions with customers, and how to work across the organization to build an engineered brand experience to maximize of every inch of branch space.
Chris will also be part of a panel called “Driving Revenue Growth through Customer Engagement” at 1:15 p.m. PDT that same day. With increased competition and a more empowered consumer, it’s not enough for banks to compete on just product—strong relationships and great customer experiences are needed to be successful. At the heart of developing these relationships and unique experiences is customer engagement, which plays a critical role throughout the customer lifecycle—from acquisition and retention to cross-sell and up-sell opportunities. This panel brings together industry experts to discuss how organizations can leverage the right tools and strategies to grow customer engagement to drive revenue.
Also that day, Verint’s Jenni Palocsik, director, solutions marketing, will participate in a panel called “Leveraging the Contact Center and Taking Advantage of All it Has to Offer” at 2 p.m. PDT.

With more channels to support and an expectation of real-time responses, financial institutions must work hard to meet evolving preferences and demands. Contact centers must incorporate new strategies and technologies, refined processes, and superior execution to deliver a first-in-class customer experience, superior customer retention and increased spend per customer. Banking contact centers evolving to meet consumer demands and expectations, technologies and processes to improve sales and service, and best practices for up-selling and cross selling will be discussed.
