Skills Workshops

How skilled are the members of your front-line in handling customers?

Are their people skills as good as their job skills? In many businesses we find greater emphasis on the ability of staff to do the role they are employed for than establishing the skills and attitude needed to create great relationships with the people they work with and serve.

We provide Skills Training in these key areas of business:

“The strength of any team is determined by its weakest link… which is yours?”

Our Signature Program

The Welcome Guest CX Enhancement Program

A team development series to align your team and establish a strong Customer Centric Culture

This three part workshop series will establish clear appreciation of the need for higher standards, provide the skills needed to deliver them and inspire your team to achieve them.
Whilst the operational function of the business is essential for trade, consistent delivery of exceptionable Customer Experiences at every level of the organisation is a far more important requirement for sustainable success.
This customer centric approach can only be achieved through the establishment of a truly aligned and engaged team who understands the importance and work together to achieve it.

This workshop series will cover:

Session 1: Five Star Customer Experiences (Half Day)

- Defining, using & refining processes

Bonus Session: Mapping your Customer Journey (Half Day)

This half day session in aimed at establishing a shared understanding of the many touch points or “Moments of Truth” that a customer experiences prior to, during and beyond an interaction with you and your team.
The exercise then invites those responsible for the delivery of those moments, to re-imagine each of them and explore the opportunity to refine them with a greater emphasis on how those moments impact the feelings your customers take with them as they leave.
In almost every scenario, its those feelings that will have the greatest influence on whether they return or not and how they will talk about it with other consumers in your market. 
“JB, you’ll be pleased to note you’ve had an incredible influence on our team.”
