A customer service and relationship skills training course
During this course the actions required to plan effectively are identified through the use of the ©PLAN model. The consequences and impact of being ‘planned’ compared to being ‘not planned’ are discussed and delegates identify the ‘materials and processes’ and ‘personal and skills areas’ they can plan prior to a call. The importance of setting objectives is discussed and the ©SHARP model for doing this effectively is introduced.
A range of powerful questions that can be used during the ©SHARP process are identified and delegates practice using this technique. An exercise occurs where delegates review each others ©SHARP objectives and this is fully debriefed.
The course finishes with delegates reviewing their learning, creating an individual personal development plan and taking a learning evaluation assessment.
