The Growing needs of Customers
Customers have expectations that are evolving continually and becoming more demanding, so standards of service quality need always to be on an upward curve. However quality in service doesn't just happen. Good service comes from planning, knowledge, skills and effort. As a team leader, manager, executive or a supervisor, you need tools to understand your customers, set quality service standards and solve customer problems. Only then can customer delight be achieved in reality.
The objectives of this programme are to:
- give participants the knowledge and skills to fulfill their role as customer service providers
- help participants identify and implement customer service standards and procedures
- ensure that participants provide consistent levels and quality of service to all their customers, internal and external
- help build a customer-focused culture within participants
Customer service can be divided into four major areas:
