The delivery of excellent service should be viewed as a way of life within an organization. World-class customer service doesn’t just happen, it must be planned and managed if it is to be delivered consistently. This means ingraining it into the fabric of the organization so that it becomes known that service excellence is “how we do business”. To do this, a service philosophy and service standards need to be established so all employees know the expectations of how to deliver great service. The customer experience must be orchestrated to ensure all opportunities to create exceptional and memorable moments will happen consistently. This program will identify the leadership actions needed to create and sustain a culture of service excellence.

To say that you were a “hit” at our Senior Management Conference this last week on St. Simons Island would be an understatement. I’ve received numerous compliments regarding your presentation and the quality of the content. As a plus, those who had the opportunity to visit with you liked you personally as well. Thanks again for a terrific experience.

Thank you for your participation in GMAC’s annual conference. Your lively session was informative and well- received. It was clear that attendees appreciated the topic and your interactive mode of delivery. We value you sharing your expertise with the group and making it relevant for them. As I told you right after the session, it’s tough for one person to hold the attention of 500 people for 90 minutes. And that you did masterfully!
Thank you for speaking at the ABC Leadership Forum in Vancouver. Your presentation, based on the evaluations for the session, was very well received by the Forum participants. You exceeded all our expectations.
It was so great to watch your enthusiastic commitment and to doing the very best possible job of putting it across to a room of people you’d never seen before and would probably never see again. I always felt I was getting full measure and that you liked us and what you were doing.
