The workshop outcome:

On completion of the workshop the participant should be able to practice effective telephone skills.

Specific outcomes of the workshop content:

The participant will be able to attain the workshop outcome by being able to:

  • Create an impression over the telephone that will enhance the organisational culture and strategic intent through effective telephone skills.
  • Manage the telephone process.
  • Give and receive telephone feedback in a professional way.
  • Build rapport with the other party.
