“Your presentation of “Customer Service from the Heart” spoke directly to challenging customer service situations which happen in the workplace every day and offered real, usable solutions to handle them.  I was impressed by how interactive the session was and how involved our membership was in the discussions.  I have heard from several of our members that they felt they really took away some valuable interpersonal tools to use at their jobs every day.

 

Thank you again for the opportunity to host you in St. Louis.  We look forward to perhaps seeing you again as one of our presenters!”

Customer Service from the Heart

Customer Service from the Heart is service that is caring, empathetic and, yes, loving!  Kristin shows you why great service is crucial to the success of any business, and shares several “Service from the Heart” techniques that will ensure that you will turn an angry customer into a happy customer.  Audiences love this highly interactive presentation, and are so entertained that they don’t realize they’re learning many valuable interpersonal skills!

 

Connecting with Customers: Serving Customers with Emotional Intelligence

We have all come to believe that intelligence, or IQ, is an important factor in our success. Amazingly, recent research suggests just the opposite – that intelligence, as measured by one’s IQ, has little to do with success in business. Rather, it is the Emotional Intelligence, or EQ, that accounts for up to 85% of a businessperson’s career success. Think about some of the most successful people you know – they may not have an Ivy League degree, but most likely, they are adept at understanding their own feelings and reading the moods of other people around them. Providing customer service with emotional intelligence is the difference between ho-hum, routine service and superlative service. Customers who experience an emotionally-intelligent interaction with a service provider are not only satisfied but are intensely loyal.  In this presentation, we look at the concepts of emotional intelligence and how they can be applied to providing outstanding customer service.
