Who is it for?
This comprehensive module is designed for a diverse range of learners and a broad range of competency levels. It’s particularly beneficial for:
- Corporations and Enterprises: Supports the development of key skills for effective customer service.
The Scenario
Whatever the reason for a customer’s journey, if you get your customer service right, you can make a good experience great and a bad one better. But if you get it wrong, you could turn a good experience bad and make a bad one even worse!
So what happens when circumstances beyond your control threaten to spoil a customer’s plans? This simulation lets you try out different approaches in a safe environment to find out the impact your decisions can have on the customer experience.
