Service Performance Training
In a competitive market, customer experience is the key differentiator. So, it’s essential for you to provide service training that truly makes a difference to the way your customers perceive you.
What you need to know
Blue Sky Service Performance Training™ is different because it is based directly on what the customer needs and wants from your business, not what you or we think they want.
We use Customer Insight Research [CIR] to gain an insight into your customers, then we build your Service Performance Training™ around the research results.
This ensures the training is not just customer-led but led specifically by your customers. Each scenario, each learning based activity is focused on delivering customer experience excellence as defined by your customers.
CIR turns traditional research on its head by determining how your customer will act now and in the future as opposed to what they have done in the past. This level of in-depth knowledge provides an inspiring lever to performance not seen within traditional customer service programmes.
Having clearly determined the customers needs and wants our role is to develop the successful service behaviours and skills to enable the team to deliver the vision.
We do this by applying the Service Performance Matrix which takes people through the levels of: Novice, Apprentice, Practitioner and Master. Developing the right behaviours, skills and knowledge depending on where they are in their development.

An increase in customer complaints at Dulux was attributed to poor customer service and communication skills. By introducing a specific complaint handling module we helped staff learn how to turn negative situations into positive customer experiences.
