Method

How a review actually runs

A clear sequence so operations, MIS, and regional managers know what happens between the scoping call and the readout.

  1. Scope the decisions, not the dashboards

    We start with the questions leadership will ask this quarter: which branches need attention, whether staffing follows footfall, and how deposit softness should be explained. Visual layouts come after the questions are sharp.

  2. Write the metric dictionary

    Every measure used in the scorecard gets an owner, a source system, a refresh cadence, and a plain-language definition. Ambiguous “productivity” labels are replaced with named calculations.

  3. Form peer groups that survive scrutiny

    We cut by footfall, premises type, and book mix before we lean on organisational regions. Regional reporting remains; peer scoring becomes fairer.

  4. Sense-check on the floor

    Where access allows, we visit a sample of branches. Queue rope design, shared printers, and renovation noise explain outliers that extracts alone mislabel.

  5. Deliver the pack and stay for the argument

    The readout includes time for contested numbers. We document agreed changes and schedule a 30-day follow-up so early actions are not lost in the next month-end rush.
