Dealing with behavior impacts us in our daily personal and business lives. As manager, director, leader, or frontline support or service professionals we might find ourselves dealing with difficult interactions. Should motivation to prepare be an event requiring reaction, performance, and adjustment without forethought?

3) If the complaint cannot be addressed, politely explain the decision by referring to specific policies while still offering alternative resolutions to retain the customer's business.
