Customer Service Excellence

“Building a good customer experience does not happen by accident.  It happens by design” - Clare Muscutt

The principles of great customer service are generally well known, yet many customers report high levels of dissatisfaction at the lack of customer service skills in all sectors.  Our customer service training aims to move staff from knowing to doing.  Doing customer service with recognition of, and dedication to, the customer’s needs and experience.  Doing customer service with pride and attention to detail.  Doing customer service with genuine care for both the customer and the success of the organisation. 
Great customer service requires confidence, commitment, and passion.  In this course, we build those abilities and help participants to move from bad, mediocre, or good service, to excellent service.
