The main purpose of our Customer Service and Dispute Resolution coaching program is to sharpen your management and staff’s customer focus and build customer satisfaction, loyalty and retention with every experience. It includes the following process:
- Customer Service Coaching defines exactly what exemplary customer service should look like.
Through dialog, assessments, and surveys with executive and frontline management, front line employees, as well as your customers, we work together to pinpoint exactly what exemplary customer service is to them. Through continued analysis and management coaching, we create with management an overall definition that will resonate to those who either are responsible offer direct service to the players or guests who receive it.
- Together we will specifically evaluate with management current challenges and opportunities regarding customer service and dispute resolution. This includes identifying the reasons why some customers may not have had an exemplary experience at your property.
Through these fact finding methods we also pin point areas of weakness where both customer and employee expectations are not being achieved. Close attention is paid to the motivation of the front line staff regarding their perceptions of both what is and how to give exemplary customer service as well as defining the relationships between both management and the customers. A deeper understanding of their roles will enhance how conflicts are resolved before they escalate.
- A “plan of action” is designed to roll out to all those individuals and departments that have a direct impact in order to achieve exemplary service.
Upon gathering all the necessary facts from the various fact finding methods, specific goals are identified and a detailed plan is developed with management that will meet these goals. The “SMART” goal formula (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time sensitive) will be used as the bases of the action plan for each individual goal. Through the use of management coaching, the coach will assist in making sure management has addressed all relevant areas, is moving ahead in completing the plan, and is being held accountable for the follow through.
- We will develop an easy and direct form of feedback to continually monitor the results that are being achieved through our Customer Service and Management Coaching.
The coach reviews with management what and how a feedback program looks like that will directly offer the tools to monitor the effectiveness of the plan. Are the goals being reached? Are the front line staff and customers having their expectations met? Are there areas that need to be changed as the market and expectations may be dynamic? In this type of management coaching, the coach challenges and supports management to develop effective methods to get the important feedback to keep service levels at the highest levels possible.
- The coach and management will work together to create a method where required changes or necessary actions take place to keep performance at the highest levels.
