Becky Oliveros, CRCM, AVP and risk officer for OneSouth Bank in Macon, learned from an early age that inattention to detail can be costly for a business. One day when Oliveros was 15 and working in her first job for a dog grooming business, she allowed a client to enter into an employee-only area, where the client’s dog spotted her, became overly excited and leapt from her cage, chipping her teeth as she fell. "I was so upset when I realized I could’ve avoided this had I paid attention to the small detail of making sure the cage was locked," she said. In her career as a bank compliance officer, attention to detail has come in handy. The director of the GBA Compliance School discusses about her professional journey, credits graduating from the GBA Compliance School with "empowering me to take a seat at the table, as a trusted member of management, acting in ways of a safety net, protecting profits," shares surprising alternative career paths she might have picked and more in her GBA Member Profile.
