Programme Overview
Our Customer Care or Service Excellence workshop enables all frontline staff to 'care' for their clients and customers using tried and tested techniques to demonstrate excellence.
Customer Care training only works if everyone, at every level in an organisation ‘buys’ into the techniques required for looking after the organisation’s customers. With this in mind this workshop is offered at two different levels:
"Customer Care for Managers" and "Customer Care for Front Line Staff."
Both offer practical insight into the practical skills involved in looking after your customers. The programmes cover essential aspects such as setting standards, the core competencies required for working with people, improving listening skills, evaluating your attitude, the welcome process, handling complaints and awkward situations, proactive telephone etiquette and the use and understanding of body language.
The management programme gives managers a clear insight of the skills that have been shared with their front line staff, and stresses the need for them to enhance this, lead by example and support their staff with their own positive input. Both programmes are highly interactive and practical and involve games, role-plays, interactive discussion and simulations.
This Customer Care workshop is all about learning practical skills for excelling in offering superb service to customers. Staff learn to communicate effectively face-to-face or telephonically across barriers created by culture, language or hierarchy.
