Peter Scheffert
What is your role with CRB?
Senior Vice President, Commercial/Ag Business.
How long have you worked with CRB?
8 years.
What is your most rewarding experience with CRB?
Getting a warm smile and thank you from someone for helping them get successfully started in business, purchase a new piece of equipment, or expand their business never gets old. Numbers are not for everyone, but if I can make it a little easier to understand what the business numbers are telling them and help the customer make a better financial decision for their business, it has been a great day.
What advice would you give to someone thinking about a career in banking?
It is a rewarding job if you like to help people. I think of myself as helping people meet their goals and dreams with their business opportunities through financial tools, funds and a financial partnership. Banking has a lot of career opportunities that can be face to face with customers or in support areas that make the bank run efficiently. No matter what, you are trying to help a community grow. Banking was my fourth career. All of my other experiences make me a better banker. If you like people, can communicate with others and are willing to learn, a banking career can be rewarding and a lot of fun.
What was the first job you ever had?
Doing livestock chores on the farm I grew up on in Waseca, Minnesota was my first assigned work. I learned the responsibility of taking care of the animals first before I ate my supper. My first paid job was at the High School lunch counter serving meals and washing dishes and my first job after college was with the Ministry of Agriculture in Botswana, Africa with youth development work.
If you could go anywhere on vacation, where would it be?
I have been extremely lucky to be a part of a family that loves to travel. We have seen a lot of the world and learned a lot from the people we meet that make vacations a special opportunity. South America is the continent yet to be explored. The history, natural wonders and various cultures provide a smorgasbord of opportunities to learn and appreciate things different from how I grew up.
Let’s bank together.
At CRB, banking together means you’re getting a resource for life’s financial journey.
