1 Day Workshop on Managing Challenging Customers


Course Introduction

Customer service is an easy thing to talk about but it is hard to maintain.

In order to have a customer service system, other considerations must take place first. Organizations first have to look at their business strategy. They also have to have a vision related to this strategy. The people in the organization also will have to realize the vision and strategy of the organization. Organizations cannot maintain customer service by themselves. They rely on their people who have the right kind of behaviour and attitude, to provide this essential element of the strategy.

The winning companies are those that consistently out perform the rest and are the customers' choice – always! Those companies who build lasting relationships with their customers are those whose reputation wins business.
