Date/Time

Competency
Customer Service
Event Description
Customer service is not an easy job for anyone. It’s hard work to just stay on top of the ever-changing products and services the library has to offer, and it takes real skill to talk with people, determine their needs and fulfill their requests.

It can be especially challenging for those who are more introverted or shy to work with customers while handling difficult questions, listening to complaints and sometimes dealing with people that can be angry or confused.

Learning Objectives:
  • Learn tools that you need to be more successful and in-control in your customer interactions
  • We will focus on the strengths of the “Quiet Approach” including active listening and thinking before speaking
  • Sharpen the skills needed to handle all customer situations with less anxiety and stress
Presenter:

Andrew Sanderbeck has been developing and conducting training programs for libraries and library organizations for more than twenty-five years. He has presented Web-based, On-line, and Face-to-Face sessions on Management and Leadership, Customer Service and Communication Skills in the U.S. and numerous countries around the world.  He is the chairman of the board of the Haywood County Public Library and a monthly donor to EveryLibrary, advocating for libraries everywhere that support is needed.
