Building Your Customer Service Brand What are your customers telling their friends about their service experience with your company? Make sure it is a positive one.

Based on research from some of the top companies like Walt Disney World, learn how to build your base of fans. Cost includes workbook. January 28, 2020    8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.    $99 Developing a Coaching and Feedback Culture Employees at every level of an organization want to do the best job possible, a goal that can’t be fully achieved without input from those in charge. Providing the right type of feedback, within the context of job expectations and responsibilities, not only dramatically improves an individual’s work performance, but helps build trusting relationships and a willingness to excel—crucial elements in job satisfaction and enduring employee retention. Millennial employees, for example, “thrive on feedback,” particular when it’s offered frequently and in a proactive, constructive way. In this hands on workshop, leaders at all levels in the organization will learn how to give the kind of feedback that boosts retention, increases productivity and helps employees stay engaged in their work.

And they definitely don’t work in business. That’s why you should be concerned that employees say performance reviews don’t benefit them. If your organization does reviews only to decide who to fire and who deserves a raise, it may not matter to you if employees feel benefited from reviews. But if you, like me, feel the true purpose of performance reviews is to help employees improve their performance, you should be alarmed. To change reviews so they benefit employee performance more companies are addressing the reasons they are ineffective and replacing it with a better two-tiered approach. Participants will walk away with a “best practice” tool and guidelines to helping employees get the information they need to perform at higher levels, stay on the desired path, be more satisfied in their jobs and understand how their work truly impacts the organization.   $169 MS Excel - Intermediate This two session seminar contains units that cover intermediate Excel skills.
