Resilient Conversations
Resilient Conversations
Business-Critical Intervention
What does it cover?
The Resilient Conversations Intervention is designed to help your customer-facing teams handle extremely challenging conversations with customers, who are often in a highly stressed and emotional state, not helped by increased wait times and the limited options available to help them. While this is all going on, your staff need to stay calm and motivated, keep going, and remain loyal to your brand.
To help overcome these challenges, we have created 11 bite-sized digital modules that cover the key skills and techniques your teams need to support their own mindset and behaviours and teach them how to deal with challenging customers while still delivering an enhanced customer experience.
