You have a choice in how you present your business message when presenting yourself to an individual or a group. Your verbal presentation is the main means of introduction. Is your introduction effective? Is it successful? People judge both the message and the messenger in addition to the message alone. Your physical appearance, mannerisms, listening skills, and exit strategy will all have an impact on how others interpret the message you’ve conveyed. The most crucial thing to keep in mind is to address each person as though they were a close friend. Your underlying hope as you network with friends and colleagues and share what you do is that they will use your services and spread the word to others, who will then utilise your services and continuing spreading the word. The same guidelines apply when someone talks on your behalf when discussing your company. They will also be assessed. That implies that your actions and words provide a template for imitation. Game of Telephone Have you ever played the classic game “telephone” as a kid? A player speaks in a hushed tone to the person seated next to them. The next person in queue is then told in a whisper the exact same thing, and so on. Before the communication reaches the final link in the chain, it is almost always distorted. The final whispered message frequently turns out to be rather humorous and bears little similarity to the original. More dramatically, the original meaning of words is frequently completely lost as they get warped or lost. The starting message’s chance of making it through the trip decreases with length and complexity.

The customer is the most important person in the economy and every business succeeds only when the customer is happy. This explains why the customer is regarded as king. As a king, the customer has many rights. But a king also has duties which he owes himself and the society. In Nigeria, customers of banks have certain rights and duties guaranteed by law, regulation and conventions. This pamphlet articulates some of these rights and duties. YOUR RIGHTS AS A BANK CUSTOMER The Right to be informed As a bank customer, you have a right to disclosure of information from your bank on products and services the bank offers. The information provided must be complete, relevant and truthful. Your bank must explain to your understanding all contractual terms and charges prior to the consummation of any agreement or contract. This rightenables you to have relevant information in order to make rational choices. It amounts to a breach of right if your bank fails to provide this information or deliberately misleads you in any way. The Right to choose You have a right to select from the range of products and services made available by your bank at competitive prices. This means that as a customer, you can, at all times, decide on the product or service to accept/purchase and the ones to decline. It is wrong for a bank to restrict your choices or compel you to accept/purchase products or services that are illsuited for your needs Where you are not satis ed with your bank’s service delivery on any product or service, you have the right to end the contract or even the banking relationship provided you settle all outstanding commitments. The Right to safety This right requires a bank to guarantee all its customers a secure and conducive banking environment devoid of threats to their safety and health. You have the right to be reasonably protected from accidents while on the premises of your bank. You also have the right to be protected from negative effects of pollution of any kind whether arising from your bank’s operations or from other sources. It is necessary to stress that your bank is obligated to adhere strictly to applicable safety and directives to ensure that your safety and well being are adequately guaranteed while you are on the premises of your bank. The Right to Privacy and Confidentiality As a bank customer, you have the right to freedom from disclosure of your account details by your bank as intrusion into  your  account  by  third  party.  In  other  words,your bank is not to divulge your account information to a third party; the bank must also protect y o u r i n f o r m a t i o n f r o m unauthorized access by a third party. There are, however, expectations to this right as follows:

Duty of knowledge and understanding This represents the cornerstone of your duties as a bank customer and involves the search for relevant knowledge that should lead you to make informed decisions and enhance your  benefits. Without adequate  knowledge, customers are bound to make ill-informed decisions which may precipitate an avalanche of complaints from customers against their banks. It is generally agreed that sophistication in the banking industry has tasked the understanding of even people that are financially literate; it is, therefore, your responsibility to “shine your eyes” when dealing with your bank. Duty of financial obligation This requires customers to repay credit facilities and pay mutually agreed interest on loans and other financial services rendered by their banks as and when due. This is one of your major responsibilities to the extent that banks are established to provide loans and other financial services to you and other customers. Thus, you are obligated to ensure that payments or repayments to your bank are not delayed in order not to suffer penalties in the form of default charges. Duty to protect instruments and information It is your duty as a bank customer to keep your cheque book, ATM and all information relating to your account like PIN, passwords and codes safe. It is important to stress that your bank cannot bear responsibility for any loss you incur as a result of your negligence in protecting vital instruments or information.
