This document provides guidance on handling customer complaints effectively. It emphasizes the importance of actively listening to complaints, demonstrating understanding, and taking direct action in response. When handling a complaint, one should maintain a positive attitude, ask clarifying questions, work to solve the issue, and thank the customer. It is also important to prevent future complaints by always providing clear information, allowing customers to explain issues fully, and focusing on solutions rather than problems. The goal is to leave customers satisfied by addressing the complaint and its root causes.

Phone Etiquette: Vocal Skills
Voice reflects attitude. Even if the words are correct and intended to be polite, tone could imply the opposite. Voice is made up of five distinct elements: tone, inflection, pitch, rate and volume. Your voice contains specific percentages of each element that makes it uniquely yours. However, there is a best practice range within which your voice sounds confident and most importantly professional.

The technologies and people we are designing experiences for are constantly changing, in most cases they are changing at a rate that is difficult keep up with. When we think about how our teams are structured and the design processes we use in light of this challenge, a new design problem (or problem space) emerges, one that requires us to focus inward. How do we structure our teams and processes to be resilient? What would happen if we looked at our teams and design process as IA’s, Designers, Researchers? What strategies would we put in place to help them be successful? This talk will look at challenges we face leading, supporting, or simply being a part of design teams creating experiences for user groups with changing technological needs.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

A complaint is free advice.
Very often complaints are not properly utilised, that is an
opportunity missed with a lesson you could have learnt.
With a complaint you get a second chance, you can value that
a customers took time to give you their opinion about a
particular topic that is in need of your attention. You can make
improvements next time.
There is nothing more important than showing respect to the
opinions of a complaining customer. You can demonstrate this
respect by actively listening and then taking direct action as a
consequence of the complaint.

Problem solving focus
When a customer complains or indicates to you that
something is not to their liking, it is important that you at
least do something for the customer. There are two ways.
After you have solved a problem, ask if the customer is
satisfied and if there is anything else you can do to be of
service. If you see the customer again later in your shift,
take the time to ask if the problem is solved and enquire as
to whether the customer is satisfied. Here you are
demonstrating that you sincerely care about the welfare of
your customer and that you value the quality of the
customer’s experience.
If you can’t solve the problem yourself or the complaint is
of an insolvable nature always offer an alternative solution.
