"Having the opportunity to discuss what we do and how we do it was very helpful in ensuring that we are all on the same page."
Individual Course Participant
"I enjoyed the open and relaxed environment of the course. I never felt stressed or put on the spot even when asked a question."
Centrix Group Limited
"I have been answering phones in my job for 15 years. It is not the most important part of my job but it is one way I communicate with my students. I feel the course was helpful in that it made me stop and think about how I approach phone conversations and reinforced some of the stuff I already do. I really enjoyed the skillful questioning section and I also enjoyed the R.A.T.E.R. section."
Te Kura - The Correspondence School
"Good course for beginners (like myself) to learn how to be more professional when communicating over the phone. Picked up lots of tricks and tips that I would not have thought to do, but will now be implementing. Kathy was a great teacher and got us all involved and answered all questions I had very well. Think it was also made better by the fact that our class size was quite small, so it was slightly personalised for us."
J.H.Whittaker & Sons
"I thought Roydon was fantastic and the course has been really helpful. Already I have used a few techniques."
CJ Industries Ltd
"I had a one on one course which was great and I understand that we had to smoosh a whole days worth of training into 3 hours but those pre-training homework things one which is to learn a bit about us asked what we basically want to gain or learn to do by the end of the course. I wrote how to deal with angry customers which we highlighted a little but not go into that much details as what I was hoping due to me saying that its what I wanted to achieve."
All Pumps Ltd
"I was lucky that Ian has a history working in Mental Health so he could relate the training to my job if not I may have found the training quite pointless. I would definitely recommend people who lack common sense and phone etiquette to take part in this training. I did learn a lot and have confirm requirements that I have asked for at my place of work to be more efficient in my job. Further training in administration, events planning and business writing would be great. Thank you for your time."
Mana o te Tangata Trust
"The section on handling irate customers using the HEAT model was most useful."
Auto FInance Direct
"I really enjoyed the course because since I was the youngest participant it was very beneficial when listening to others when sharing about their experiences, stories and questions. I also found learning about professionalism, vocal exercises and rephrasing sentences/words exercises very useful and will try my best to apply this knowledge."
