Ryan Liebowitz, VP Commercial Lending, shares his take on the importance of communication.

How important is COMMUNICATION in your daily life?

Communication is ESSENTIAL for myself and my fellow Oconee State Bank teammates in order to adhere to our vision, mission, and values, and to be viewed as a trusted resource in our community.

Over the last five months, our team has been especially intentional with how we communicate in regards to the latest stimulus packages being discussed by Congress and the best plan for rolling out our Paycheck Protection Program to the community.  Every communication may not have answered every question, but we communicated what we knew with purpose and we will always communicate intentionally with you in mind.

One of the really neat things about communication is that everyone has unique personalities and most have different ways in which they prefer to be communicated with.  Some clients prefer electronic communication best while others love the in-person discussions (my preferred method).  The point is that remarkable communication is individualized and that is why I love what I do.  I have the privilege of working alongside fantastic entrepreneurs that are looking to create value for their clients and community.

Guaranteeing anything in these crazy times is almost a recipe for disaster, but my guarantee to those reading this blog is that me and my teammates will continue communicating the best, most up-to-date information in order to help you, as an individual or business owner, reach your short and long term goals.  Your future is our mission.
