In our course, we help People Managers increase their awareness that Performance Coaching is a journey and needs to be done at the right time with the right talent. The right time could be throughout the duration of a period, at regular intervals until the expected improvements begin to manifest. This course will also help people understand the difference in 4 coaching styles and how this will impact performance. Whilst we will discuss situational leadership in coaching, our primary focus would be on the collaborative and in some instances, laissez faire coaching style. We help Leaders understand that coaching is about encouraging their people to find solutions, by empowering them. This creates a sense of ownership in their team members and fosters an environment of joint responsibility and accountability. Our course helps Managers understand that an effective performance culture can only be driven through an environment that encourages a feedback mechanism that is complemented by an equitable recognition program.

Communication Skills for Customer Servicing https://www.skillfocus.com.my/communication-skills-for-customer-servicing/ Sat, 03 Jun 2017 06:36:42 +0000 https://www.skillfocus.com.my/?p=4488 Read more about Communication Skills for Customer Servicing[…]]]> Since time immemorial, those of us in the service industry have been indoctrinated with the adage, “Customer is Always Right”. Whilst some may choose to disagree, the reality is that said service industries’ existence is based on their ability to sustain their customer base. Whilst there are numerous courses on effective customer servicing, ours is designed around one major component, that is on how an individual communicates or responds to a customer. We find that in many industries, customer satisfaction could be severely impacted by simply a wrong choice in words or even the intonation in a response to their needs. This course will help individual frontline staff better understand customer requirements, their motivations and respond in a manner that can help improve customer delight. We will cover the importance of patience, improving listening skills, clearly communicating your decision and using positive language when the inevitable response has to be a ‘No’. We will cover case studies based on industries, and role play for participants to understand where their possible gaps are and how best to close these gaps.

Commonly, many people are unable to see the direct value in the initiatives and interventions provided by HR., that will provide the audience with the understanding of the HR function and how this will add value to their business/ functions. This will provide Line Managers with a better understanding of how HR contributes directly to the success of their business. This is essentially a 8 module workshop that needs to be covered over 4 days, which is meant to provide a full view of the overall employee lifecycle (cradle to grave), but the approach is to first cover 4 modules of 2 days and after a suitable interval, we will cover the other 4 modules over another 2 days. The phased-out approach is essential for Line Managers to not feel strained with possible information overload and to focus on immediate need of the organization based on criticality of outcomes.
