Our Mastering Customer Service one-day workshop is available both in the classroom and online through Face-to-Face Live Online Learning sessions. We have adjusted the course content slightly for online delivery — please select your preferred delivery method below to see the correct course outline.
Themes Covered
On this one-day workshop, you will learn:
- Introductions and personal objectives
- Identify the threats of perceived poor service and the opportunities of perceived excellent service
- Understand what makes truly excellent customer service (internal and external) and review how your organisation is performing in specific areas
- Identify how your beliefs impact on your interactions with customers
- Discover the Customer Recovery Loop – avoiding the biggest mistake in customer service
- Understand the positive intention behind challenging behaviour from customers
- Use the LEAPS model to resolve issues for unhappy customers either face-to- face or over the phone
- Recognise the opportunity provided by complaints to your organisation
- Personal action plan beyond the programme
Our approach to online programme delivery
The learning will be through a combination of interactive workshops delivered live through Zoom and self-guided assignments over the day.
The Zoom sessions will focus on group interaction, discussion, exercises, and opportunities to practice the skills. The self-guided elements will focus on explaining the concepts and tools and allow for self-reflection.
You should reserve out 10am to 4.30pm in your diary for the learning. This will allow you to join the interactive workshops and have time to reflect and do the assignments in between. We believe immersing yourself in the content for a whole day will create deep learning and lasting impact.
