Service Recovery Strategies
by Samantha Sim
Why You Should Attend This Course
Many organisations have customer satisfaction as a key performance target. It is practically impossible to achieve the “zero-defects” all the time. Things do go wrong at times. Some service failures and customer dissatisfaction is almost inevitable in our real world. If service lapses are almost inevitable, then it is crucial that organisations have proper service recovery strategies to win over upsetting customers. For there is growing body of evidence in consumer research to suggest that service recovery can generate customer satisfaction and loyalty as well as positive word-of-mouth advertising. A poor service on the other hand can result in negative customer experience, leading to complaints and have impact on customer’s decision on repurchase.
This one day course on Service Recovery Strategies will enable participants to understand how best to deal with service failures and customer complaints by understanding different customers expectations & how they respond to different service recovery actions. The course will also equip participants with necessary service recovery skills to manage service failures effectively.
