Customer Hostility And Rage Management


A workshop for customer service trainers


Customer Behavior Management programs



Five reasons not to attend this workshop


1.
We've never had a problem with dangerous customers.

Yet. On average, 5 retail or service employees are murdered and 4,500 are assaulted on the job by customers each week in the U.S.*


2. We know how to deal with upset customers.

Don't mistake competence in handling difficult customer service situations with the ability to manage people predisposed to violence.


3. We include conflict resolution training for our employees.

C.H.A.R.M School is not about "harmonizing feelings." It's about identifying and defusing potentially dangerous situations.


4. Managing dangerous customers is not a priority for us.

Don't wait until your employees or customers become victims to learn how to avoid being victimized.


5. Our company doesn't support programs like this.

Bummer.

Why attend

Today’s customers are more harried, more demanding, and more dangerous than ever. With an apparent trend toward more incidents of customer hostility and rage, the safety of your employees, your customers, and your company's assets takes on new, urgent, and challenging dimensions.


That challenge falls squarely on the shoulders of your frontline employees. The lessons learned in this workshop will help you help them to meet that challenge.


Upon completion of this workshop you will be able to equip your employees with pre-incident identification techniques and arm them with tactics to effectively and safely manage potentially dangerous customers.
