Get Curious, Not Furious – A Diverse Approach to Customer Service – Mary Miscisin
As an employee, so many more lives are touched by you than you might imagine. Whether you work independently or you constantly interface with others, you’re sure to encounter challenging situations and people. How do you maintain your composure and professionalism even when others don’t?
If you are dealing with “annoying others” who seem to ruin your day …
Learn to get curious, instead of furious!
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to customer service. What’s considered helpful by some, may actually upset others. It’s important to tune in to people where they are and genuinely listen to their concerns. Distinguish the motivations and preferences of yourself and others so you know how to interact in ways that leave everyone feeling better instead of worse. Understand the small actions that can make a big difference in making someone’s day.
