Delivering Client Value

Name:  Janet Title:   Vice President Year Joined:  2006

People working at CAST are proud of the firm and of the work they do, and geuniunely believe that there is no company in the financial services industry that we can't help be more successful.  And yet, we roll up our sleeves and work with our clients side by side, making them the heroes and transferring our knowledge to them - it's not about us; it's about our clients.  It's a testament to our strong client relationships that we have done more than 100 projects with just one client over more than 10 years - we are their valued business partner, not their vendor, and that only happens when you create relationships based on mutual trust and respect. At CAST, it's a given that everyone is talented and successful - there's no arrogance or competition, just a commitment to maintaining the firm's stellar reputation for delivering above and beyond the client's expectations.

Over 11 years ago, I received my undergraduate degree and joined CAST as an Associate Consultant.  I had no idea what to expect.  Throughout my career, CAST has offered me experiences that I would not have had at other firms.  From day 1, I understood that what I was doing would directly impact our clients and that, as a team, we were to do whatever it took to serve our clients' best interest.  This involved working directly with our clients to understand their needs, analyze their situations, and recommend/implement solutions.

Our best practice methodology enabled a major regional bank to achieve significant improvement in the collection of service charge fees.  You know you are doing the right thing when the client is promoting your services and capabilities within their organization.

I love that clients repeatedly say that we are not like “typical” consultants. We don’t bring a cookbook template to an engagement, rather we get to understand the organization and focus on the uniqueness that separates them from others.

It is personally and professionally rewarding to win a client's trust by sharing your own background of similar business experiences. By appropriately empathizing with clients at all levels of the organization, partnerships are strengthened and meaningful solutions are developed.

Immediately after joining CAST, I was placed on a project at a bank that was one of our first large projects with that bank.  It was amazing to me how involved CAST's senior level management was in the project to ensure that a quality product was being delivered.  This was evident by the fact that since that first project I have been placed on about 4 additional projects at the same client.  Everyone that I worked with on the projects had the same goal of delivering a product of the highest quality that would ensure follow on work.

On my first project at CAST I was helping a client set up a training program for over 600 employees.  Through this training, our client will become compliant with regulatory agencies as well as increase efficiency of a core business practice.  It was exciting to watch how our program directly resulted in a continuous benefit for our client.
