Editor's Notes

  1. Starting with a quote that epitomizes customer services so wonderfully, where we state that the very existence of organizations is to service customers, and making a profit thereof. So a sound appreciation of their roles and their importance in the organization. Acknowledging the fact that the role is highly demanding, and it certainly does not finish at the end of business hours of Dulsco. Most importantly, while technical skills in a mandate in this role, what will really bring success is their attitude towards service as well as their strong will to succeed. (Technical competence would mean someone with strong product knowledge, powerful language skills, etc ).Here one needs to continually progress, improve and renew himself/herself for complacency will kill! Give your experience with the bank where your money went back into the machine and how you got ‘different’ views from different personnel in the same bank!
  2. While this works as an icebreaker and helps each other come closer as a team, it certainly has a strong message on rapport building which is critical for superior customer service. Split in groups, based on numbers that are provided to them at the startHave the groups to find out what is common to all in that group, and one takes notesNotes are first shared with their groups and then with the entire audienceTime: 10 minutes in totalDebrief : Understand how this can be applied in Customer ServiceAsk – How does it feel having found common ground between participantsNew perspective of the person Know them betterFeel CloserRelate moreLike me and hence I like him/her (underlying principle in NLP for rapport building)Hence, in Customer Service too, it will be good to understand common ground which will bring about a ‘personal’ touch to the entire transaction. My experience with the CS staff of HDFC in having the same date of birth, and how that has us exchange emails at least on one day each year.
  3. Customer demands are ever increasing and our service levels have to move up in accordanceWe may be good customer service personnel already, and we do have a certain level of CS, but this is not enough for us….simply because the customer has moved on and we need to keep pace. Yesterdays delight is today’s basic!
  4. An activity to stimulate the participants in seeing how there have been practical changes in the behavior of customers over the year.
  5. Continuing on the track/path of excellence, today we are going to see how we can support and help with developing world class customer service mind set. This requires clarity, signaling and consistency. Apply and Southwest Airlines ex
  6. Taking from the examples of apple and Southwest Airlines, let us see why we in Dulsco individually are doing what we are doing?We are pretty good about what we need to day, and to a large extent how to go about it. We have our JDs and we have the experience and training to see how best to go about doing what we have to do. The big question that we need to now ask ourselves is ‘why’ are we doing it! What drives me. Why is this important for me. What if I was not doing this. What am I ultimately trying to achieve here….the why is a question that brings faith in the task I do….Faith, without it nothing is possible; with it nothing is impossible!
  7. Group activity to solicit what makes us rave about other teams / people. Can these traits be reflected in our business?
  8. Roger Banister, first to run a mile in less than 4 minutes, once he did it, many others broke this record….Customers vary in types….some vocal, some may not. Listening is a skill and an art. Not just words, but got to read between the lines. Greetings, gifts, wishes, updates, share common info, etcNever under estimate the power of a customer. Pretty woman story with J Roberts…Team….1 and 1 certainly exceeds 2. whole is greater than sum of the parts…provided we work towards working together….knowing we share the same goal.Skills go redundant over time….Story of the woodcutters….I must keep sharpening the saw.2 kinds of men, pro-active and re-active! One chooses to do, other helplessly does. One is early, other is late. One is swift, other slow. One hits the target, the other misses.
