Brief outline 

This training is divided in two parts: 

Part 1: Delivering service excellence through the EPIC framework 

Service excellence means going beyond the basics. It’s about building trust, honesty, respect, integrity, and commitment as foundations; deliver service through a warm greeting, anticipating needs, and a fond farewell; and strengthen success with transparency, empowerment, and continuous improvement. 

Part 2: Strategies for service excellence  

The second part of the training presents strategies for offering personalized service, anticipating customer needs, empowering staff, ensuring transparent communication, and consistently exceeding expectations in order to strengthen customer relationships.  

At the end of the training, you will have acquired the skills necessary to foster a truly customer-focused culture. 

Preparatory material will be sent to you in advance.
