Service Excellence Training in Doha, Qatar

Service Excellence looks at service as an organization-wide culture rather than the job of the front line alone. The course explains how back-office, support and specialist departments affect the customer through the internal service chain, and why serving internal customers well is essential to serving external customers. Participants explore the service-profit chain, the elements of a strong service culture, the role of leadership and empowerment, and how values and behaviors are translated into consistent service across teams, locations and channels.

The course is interactive and suitable for mixed groups from different departments, which helps break down silos. Participants map their internal customers and suppliers, agree service commitments between teams, and explore how leaders can recognize and reinforce service behaviors. Each participant identifies personal and team actions to raise service standards. Service Excellence is offered as a public course in Doha, live online, or as an in-house program for organizations launching a service culture initiative.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
