Service skills
Better, faster and with feeling!

Many organisations get most things right, but let themselves down by providing a poor service - and bad news can travel fast. This course helps to improve efficiency and cooperation by revealing better methods of service and communication.

The lost art of communication

  • Is it an art, or a science?
  • How important is having a system?
  • How can we avoid misunderstandings?
  • Can we take any communication at face value?
  • How do we read between the lines?
  • How can we reason with an unreasonable person?
  • How can we turn a disaster into a success?

The lost art of co-operation

  • Why can ‘no man be an island’?
  • Is there more to it than mutual back scratching?
  • What is ‘good will’ and how can we build it?
  • What should we do when we need a favour?
  • Should we have to go beyond the call of duty?
  • What can we do if someone takes liberties?
  • What can we learn from other people?

How to be more efficient without really trying

  • Are some people just born more efficient?
  • What does it say about us if we’re not?
  • Is it just about being organised?
  • How important is my attitude?
  • What part does indecision play?
  • How important is a routine?
  • What if the system’s at fault?
