Dealing with aggressive or abusive customers can be extremely challenging, especially if we are new to a customer service role. Dealing with these situations, or even just witnessing them from the sidelines can be extremely confronting and can cause us to feel a lot of negative emotions. Studies have shown that being exposed to a lot of disrespectful, aggressive, or abusive customers leads to lower workplace morale, emotional damage, absenteeism, staff turnover, and physical injury.
This is a non-accredited course. You will receive a Certificate of Completion upon successful completion.
Our goal in this course is to assist you to develop skills to de-escalate disrespectful, aggressive, or abusive customers and, when we are not able to defuse a situation – we will address strategies we can implement to deal with these customers while protecting our health and wellbeing.
