Managing Difficult Conversations
Managing Difficult Conversations Training
We offer unique solutions tailored to meet the needs of each individual customer, no matter where they are located in Australia – from Sydney and Brisbane through Canberra and Melbourne, down to Parramatta, Geelong or even on the Gold Coast.
In the professional context, conversations can open many doors and create potential connections. However, if not handled properly or with appropriate etiquette they may also bring unfavourable outcomes: customers could become too skeptical or potentially aggressive when presented with a product pitch. The worst case scenario involves an irate customer that has lost interest in purchasing the item at hand – leading to damage of reputation among co-workers and financial losses for business entities. In this comprehensive training course, professionals will improve the essential ability to confidently and professionally manage challenging conversations. Through practical exercises in stress management, objection handling techniques, customer service basics and more – participants can develop their skillset for averting even the most difficult of conversational scenarios. With a deep understanding of questioning techniques and body language as well – they’ll be sure to learn how proactively prevent future roadblocks while staying poised when facing adversity head-on!
Difficult conversations can have catastrophic results, especially in the professional world; missed sales pitches and a loss of potential customers are often only some of these effects. To help tackle this issue head-on, we offer specialised training sessions that focus on preventing and resolving challenging situations by discussing body language techniques, stress management strategies as well as questioning approaches – all with customisable options to suit specific needs!
