Overview

The telephone is recognised as the most important tool for delivering customer service in today's competitive Telecoms market place. However meeting the modern customer's ever-increasing expectations for care and keeping them loyal places heavy demands on the customer service capabilities of front line agents. The attitudes, skills and knowledge of agents represent both the competence of the company and its image to customers.

This interactive workshop covers the fundamental skills and behaviours of advanced customer service and the telephone skills that are needed to deliver first class customer care. The course identifies telephone skills and positive behaviours needed to confidently manage the customer's needs and anxieties. It will encourage agents to embrace high standards for service and performance and give them the tools to carry them through.
