Establishes fundamental customer service principles applicable to all organisations.
Whether your customers are buyers, clients, patients or other service users they are fundamental to the success of your organisation. It pays to go that extra mile to deliver a service they applaud and of which you can be justifiably proud.
This simple-to-use pack asks questions of your own performance, looks at your organisation’s approach to customers and guarantees lots of worthwhile discussion around a range of customer service issues. Work through the set of 30 cards discussing the issues and reaching conclusions. You’ll clear up misconceptions about customer service, face actual examples of customer service in action, evaluate your own skills, test your knowledge about your organisation’s policies and procedures, and develop basic ground rules. Do you know your top customers or clients? How do you treat 'internal' customers?
Finally Action Plans form the vehicle for taking easy-to-implement lessons back to work to boost your confidence, motivate you - and win customers.
- Divide participants into teams.
- Issue each team with a set of the 30 unique cards.
