OBJECTIVE / BENEFITS
As Gandhi once said, "A customer is the most important visitor on our premises and he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favour by serving him. He is doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so."
During this workshop we look at the all different types of customer service. It is a misunderstanding that only employees which have direct involvement with customers need these skills, such as a receptionist or a telesales marketer. Perhaps you are company owner, in which case you would be serving customers and your staff.
