Customer Centric Values

Duration: 1 Day

Time: 8:30am-4:00pm

This course aligns customer-centric service levels expected of staff, with organisational values and aspirations.

 The programme draws from key modules within two highly interactive courses that we have developed. The first was designed to inculcate the “brand ambassador” responsibilities that employees bear when representing their employers, whilst the second delivers very practical and essential skills focusing on how to serve disappointed, demanding, difficult and angry customers, with genuine care.

 Delegates will develop insight into the different types of customer demands and why customers get disappointed. They will learn the skills required to manage themselves first and then to resolve customer requirements even when dealing with potentially contentious issues.
