17 Key Takeaways ✓ The first thing the customer tells us is rarely the whole picture. ✓ Don't jump straight to an answer or solution. Understand enough first. ✓ Ask with purpose. Every question should help us understand something useful. ✓ Listen to the answer. It should guide what we ask next. ✓ Don't ask what the customer has already told us. ✓ Confirm our understanding before taking action.

Manage expectations = Be clear about what we know, what we can commit to, and what happens next.

Active Listening & Empathy

38 Listening A key skill for life and work

Listening – is more than “hearing” ear eyes undivided attention heart king

“Saya dah call tiga kali pasal benda yang sama.” What did you HEAR? Listen for the MESSAGE + the EMOTION

Connecting with Emotions

But First… .... The ability to understand and share another person’s feelings as if you’re standing in their shoes.

Don’t forget to remove your shoes!

44 Connecting with Emotions & Service Recovery Step Connecting with Emotions (Empathy) Service Recovery ASSESS Listen for what happened, emotion and impact Understand what went wrong and what the customer needs now ACKNOWLEDGE Recognize how the customer feels / is affected Acknowledge the poor experience without blaming or defending RESPOND & CONTINUE • Respond appropriately to what you've heard • Move the conversation forward • Correct, resolve or take the appropriate action • Explain next steps and follow through

Customer: “Saya sudah call tiga kali pasal benda yang sama.” Connecting with Emotions & Service Recovery Assess Repeated calls → frustrated → wants resolution Acknowledge “Maaf, Encik. kamek faham Encik mesti kecewa sebab sudah tiga kali call kami untuk perkara yang sama.” Respond & Continue “Kamek akan check apa yang sudah dibuat setakat tok. Lepas ya saya terangkan apa langkah seterusnya.” Customer: “Semalam orang itu cakap lain, hari ini cakap lain.” Assess Conflicting information → customer confused and lose confidence Acknowledge “Maaf Encik. Kamek faham kitak mesti keliru sebab semalam dapat maklumat lain, hari tok pula lain.” Respond & Continue “Kamek akan confirm dulu maklumat yang betul dan terangkan kepada Encik apa yang perlu dibuat seterusnya.”

Tonality that Builds Trust

47 PACE Too fast can sound rushed; Too slow can sound uninterested VOLUME Too loud can feel aggressive Too soft can lack confidence. PITCH Changes how warm, interested or concerned we sound. EMPHASIS Highlights what matters in the message. What Does the Customer Hear?

48 Wait….. How about What’s App chat Word choice + punctuation + sentence length + response style “Tunggu. Saya check.” ✓ “Baik Encik, beri saya sedikit masa untuk semak ya.”
