Communication and focus on building a relationship with our clients. We need to take the time to understand what is most important to our clients and figure out the best way to help them with their needs. I think we do a great job of this but we can always improve.

More support and staffing. The best is expected of us with no support.
Review from Finance Dept
A focus on taking care of clients. Look for a way to say "Yes" rather then look for the best way to provide a no. Everything is a procedure or disclosures focused on not getting sued instead of taking care of the client and build a relationship. Always pressure to focus on flavor of the month.
