Course Overview

Customer service excellence is being recognised as the holy grail of sales. Competent customer service helps in cultivating a pleasant customer experience. Positive recurring customer experience, in turn, generates customer satisfaction and loyalty towards the brand. It is well known that customer service professionals are the first to interact with prospective customers. Their interaction, attitude, and approach towards customers can make or break a business and its reputation. Thus, it becomes very critical for an organisation to have a well-trained customer service staff. It does not suffice to merely have a workforce that is dedicated and hardworking. The customer service team must know how to turn this dedication and knowledge to the organisation’s advantage. This is where the need for coaching customer service skills arises. 

 

How do you coach customer service skills?

Who is a customer service coach? – A well-experienced and established person of the industry, most certainly. He or she understands various subtleties and nuances of customer service. They are needed to educate beginners in the field of customer service. Such a coach would equip them with the tools of the fundamentals of customer service. The need for coaching also arises for representatives who have been working in customer service for a while but have not been up to date with the latest changes and developments. In such cases, coaching helps them in improving their skills and getting back on track. The need for a dynamic and experienced expert for coaching is actively felt by organisations looking to sharpen their workforce. This coach is often found within the organisation itself in the form of team leaders, supervisors, or managers. However, to train others a coach often needs to be assimilated to the needs of the trainees.

 

What are the techniques of coaching?

How can the coach build a trusting relationship with the trainees? How to ensure proper goal setting with adequate quality standards for customer dealing? How to establish a solution-centric environment among the team? How to guarantee continuous learning? How to train the representatives for challenges regarding customer service? How to assess the skills of representatives to identify problem areas and areas that need improvement? These are only some of the obstacles faced by coaches when training professionals for customer service. An organisation that seeks to exceed customer expectations needs to prioritize regular coaching of customer service staff. Regular coaching keeps customer service representatives abreast of the latest knowledge and prevents dulling of customer service skills. The need for an efficient coach is often pressing for the organisation and cannot be neglected. 

 

Zoe talent solutions understand that amidst the deluge of constant challenges faced by organisations, customer service skills coaching can often take a backseat. Even if the organisation is keen to provide training to its customer service staff, it is faced with a lack of skilled leadership. To combat these issues, Zoe has introduced this compact and effective ‘Coaching customer service skills training program’. The program has been created for coaches, team leaders, managers, supervisors, or professionals who have been charged with the task of coaching the customer skills within the staff. The course provides an analysis as to how different trainees have different needs and how their specific behaviour can be changed. The course will reaffirm the basics of customer service, inculcate the culture of idea sharing, team development, goal setting of the representatives, develop an action plan for future growth, and so on. Correct coaching of leaders and a well-organised coaching program can prove to be the foundation of robust customer service if done rightly.
