We have a wealth of experience gained from our extensive work within Customer Service.  We work closely with our clients to identify the successes, strengths, best practices and gaps that are delivering current results before putting together a programme to address area’s where improvement in skills, behaviours and knowledge can be encouraged.  Our approach to training and development is to make a difference. We develop programmes that inspire people to think differently, behave differently and continue to make a difference when they return to the workplace.

Our Customer Service programmes are engaging, inspiring, fun, interactive and relevant to the specific scenarios that clients can face.  Areas we can include/focus on are:-

  • Focus on communications skills, how to take ownership of problem-solving from start to finish, i.e. ways to stay in touch and follow up, keeping the customer informed all the way through the process to resolution, showing passion with a personal touch.
  • Empathy, dealing with confrontation, complaints.
  • Tactics to diffuse difficult conversations and build a strong, valued and trusted relationship. Customers can be challenging and demanding, so appropriate methods will be shared and discussed, enabling the call handler to diffuse difficult situations and build confidence and trust in their customer.
  • Understand what excellence is and how individuals can identify areas of improvement through personal goals.

Throughout all our programmes we always encourage a three-way feedback approach conducted in an open fashion so that all parties are updated on progress.  We recommend catch-up days to explore the progress and flex the approach as necessary.

Benefits for Staff

  • Increased job satisfaction as relatively junior team members see how their contribution can positively impact customer satisfaction scores and bottom-line results.
  • Less time spent on fire fighting and rework as they have a shared service framework and set of skills to facilitate problem-solving conversations with colleagues.
  • Customer service teams and management using a shared language and demonstrating consistent skill models to talk about how they achieve customer satisfaction in their dealings internally and externally.
  • Increased productivity and as teams spend less time on heroic recoveries and fire-fighting and more time finding ways to make long term improvements.
