National design-build leader DBSI announces a strategic partnership with Saltee Co, a growth, talent, and advisory-focused consulting firm, to upgrade the impact of DBSI’s Professional Services offering and expand its I.D.E.A.S. Training Platform.
DBSI and Saltee Co will combine people-first transformation expertise with advisory and talent consulting to help financial institutions build stronger teams, improve service consistency, and accelerate the shift from transactional interactions to advisory relationships.
“At DBSI, we’ve always believed the heart of transformation isn’t just the space or the technology, it’s the people delivering the experience every day,” said EJ Kritz, Chief Experience Officer at DBSI. “This partnership with Saltee Co strengthens our ability to equip leaders and frontline teams with practical tools, training, and coaching that turn strategy into behavior, and behavior into measurable client experience outcomes.”
The DBSI and Saltee Co partnership aligns two teams fully dedicated to the community banking industry to deliver a true value-add solution for both new and existing clients. Saltee Co brings tried-and-true experience in growth, talent, and advisory services to help organizations create impact, develop their teams, and guide future efforts.
“DBSI has built an incredible reputation in helping banks and credit unions transform how they show up for their clients. We’re excited to partner in a way that combines our areas of expertise to elevate leadership, strengthen team performance, and help institutions build a culture that matches the experience they’re investing in,” said Todd Weiden, CEO and Founder of Saltee Co.
The partnership strengthens how institutions are supported, starting with a clear understanding of what matters most to their teams and communities, and then delivering a differentiated, tailored approach that clients feel in day-to-day execution:
