SUMMARY:Communicating Change
DESCRIPTION:It is critical that organizations change – to keep ahead of the competition\, to meet customer needs\, to take advantage of new technology and thinking etc. We are all subjected to change in one way or another. \nWhy then do so many organizations fall short of successfully implementing change? Why do they fail to recognize that even the smallest change will have an immediate and often long-term impact on performance when not appropriately managed? Failure to recognize and take appropriate action at each stage of the change is costly both in terms of revenue and staff morale. \nThis learning experience helps participants understand the effects of change\, the likely reaction and impact on the people and the business. It defines practical ways to lead and manage people through the transition of change and to be better equipped for the next change ahead. \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:2-Day Coaching for Performance Course
DESCRIPTION:Most organizations would say that their company has a “coaching culture” and that the number one priority of its team leaders is to coach. However\, studies show that number of centres where this is a reality is very low. It comes as no surprise that those centres which do have a real coaching culture have the lowest attrition\, the most motivated staff and the best at satisfying the demands of their customers. \nStaff job descriptions almost always include the fact that they do coaching. However\, upon further probing\, we consistently discover that the quality and quantity of coaching are inadequate for producing the results that would be expected from an effective coaching program. \nJoin us March 28th & 29th\, 2019 \nFor more information\, please click here \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:Customer Success Strategy Course
DESCRIPTION:Every touchpoint throughout the customer journey – whether B2C or B2B – matters. Effectively managing this journey is critical to success for both the customer and the service provider. \nOnce onboard and using the service\, customers need to feel that they have your organization’s support at every level. Yet\, too often organizations complete implementation in a strong proactive manner\, and then move to a reactive strategy. Organizations must develop and utilize a customer success experience that defines tasks\, milestones\, and alignment throughout the whole lifecycle. After all\, successful outcomes are the main drivers of customer renewal and expansion. \nThe CSPN Customer Success & Strategy Program is designed for managers and team leads looking to deliver customer success by developing the mindset\, metrics and strategies they can use today. The program supports individuals and organizations in creating business focused activities to manage the customer life cycle and drive adoption\, renewals\, upselling and advocacy. \nAll businesses – traditional\, subscription-based or otherwise – need to maximize customer lifetime value to be profitable and succeed. With new customer acquisition costs exceeding the cost to retain existing customers\, our Customer Success & Strategy Program provides the insight and perspectives to reduce churn while expanding accounts and increasing customer engagement. \nLong-term success starts with the ability and knowledge of the individuals responsible for delivering it. Customer Success is and always will be about the people and their knowledge\, skills and abilities. However important those first days are\, the journey to customer success is constant and never ends. \nJoin us March 7th & 8th! \nFor more information\, please click here \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:Conflict Resolution Public Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This course qualifies as one prerequisite towards CCSS© designation \nHave you ever been in a conflict that you wished you could have handled better? We have all experienced the stress that comes from having unresolved conflicts with our co-workers. Conflicts that are ignored or resolved badly don’t go away – they cause people to feel resentful and to avoid each other. The effects on an organization are a loss of productivity\, absenteeism and high turnover. \nConflict comes about from differences – in needs\, values and motivations. Sometimes it is through these differences that we complement each other\, but sometimes these differences result in conflict. Conflict is not a problem in itself – it is what we do with it that counts. \nIt is important that we do something because whether we like it or not\, conflicts demand our energy. In fact\, an unresolved conflict can call on tremendous amounts of our attention. We all know how exhausting an unresolved conflict can be. It is not always easy to fix the problem but a great energy boost can come when we do. This program teaches you the techniques for proper conflict resolution that will leave you feeling satisfied and content. \nJoin us February 28\, 2019! \nFor more information\, please click here   \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:Conflict Resolution Public Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This course qualifies as one prerequisite towards CCSS© designation \nHave you ever been in a conflict that you wished you could have handled better? We have all experienced the stress that comes from having unresolved conflicts with our co-workers. Conflicts that are ignored or resolved badly don’t go away – they cause people to feel resentful and to avoid each other. The effects on an organization are a loss of productivity\, absenteeism and high turnover. \nConflict comes about from differences – in needs\, values and motivations. Sometimes it is through these differences that we complement each other\, but sometimes these differences result in conflict. Conflict is not a problem in itself – it is what we do with it that counts. \nIt is important that we do something because whether we like it or not\, conflicts demand our energy. In fact\, an unresolved conflict can call on tremendous amounts of our attention. We all know how exhausting an unresolved conflict can be. It is not always easy to fix the problem but a great energy boost can come when we do. This program teaches you the techniques for proper conflict resolution that will leave you feeling satisfied and content. \nFor more information\, please click here   \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:Workplace Motivators 101
DESCRIPTION:Do you know what one of the biggest factors is in leading a fulfilling career and personal life? Have you ever wondered why not everyone shares your passion for some things? Have you ever noticed that when someone doesn’t value what you do that there may be conflict? \nThis workshop will answer these questions and more. We will explore the six higher level categories of motivators. \nThe happiest\, most productive and the most successful people in the world have one thing in common – they have discovered what motivates them and harnessed it to drive them forward each and every day. When the work we do is aligned with our primary motivators\, we feel energized and motivated to do better each day. What energizes a sales or marketing team can stand in stark contrast to what energizes a social worker or customer service rep. \nIn this workshop\, participants will: \n\n\nReceive a personalized Workplace Motivators report which will reveal their workplace motivators hierarchy. \n\n\nCome to understand why it is so important to know this information about oneself for personal and professional fulfillment. \n\n\nLearn about each of the 6 high level motivators categories. \n\n\nKnow the degree of passion or indifference they have to each of the 6 motivator categories. \n\n\nLearn how differences in Workplace Motivators between people can cause conflict; and\, how similarities in Workplace Motivators can lead to improved rapport. \n\n\nLocation: Next Gen Hub Business Suites \n25A Hunter Valley Rd.\, Orillia\, ON L3V 0Y7 \nSuper Early Bird & Early Bird Deadlines available! \nTo Register: Visit www.prismgroup.ca \nSee the full Workplace Success Series Workshops

SUMMARY:Sales Relations 101
DESCRIPTION:Understanding your own communication style and being able to quickly read others’ communication preferences is the first key to building rapport and trust with a prospective client or customer. Much like an interview\, how you first engage with your prospects can either begin to establish rapport and build trust or turn the prospect off. It’s critically important to understand that: \n“People buy from people they like and people like people like themselves!” \nPeople who are successful in sales start with an accurate perception of their own communication style\, an ability to quickly assess their prospective clients’ or customers’ style accurately and know how to adapt for improved buy-in. \nIn this introductory session\, participants will: \n\n\nReceive a personalized Sales Behavioural Profile Report to help them understand their own style. \n\n\nLearn how others perceive their behaviour and why it might contribute or detract from establishing rapport and buy in. \n\n\nBe more confident in identifying their prospects’/customers’ behavioural styles.. \n\n\nLean what they should do to adapt their behavioural style for improved buy-in and rapport. \n\n\nHave the tools they need to be more aware and confident in their sales interactions. \n\n\n** Bonus learning: Participants will come to understand why opposites don’t attract! \nLocation: Next Gen Hub Business Suites \n25A Hunter Valley Rd.\, Orillia\, ON L3V 0Y7 \nSuper Early Bird & Early Bird Deadlines available! \nTo Register: Visit www.prismgroup.ca \nSee the full Workplace Success Series Workshops

SUMMARY:Customer Service 101
DESCRIPTION:Successful business depends on exceptional Customer Service. It is essential to understand that every employee is involved in customer service. It has been proven that customers would rather switch to another company than tolerate poor service. \nResearch indicates\, even if there is no conflict\, over 60% of all customers quit dealing with a business because of indifference on the part of some employee. The ability to interact effectively with customers may be the critical difference between success or failure. Effective customer service begins with an accurate perception of one’s own work customer relations style. \nIn this session\, participants will: \n\n\nReceive their own personalized Customer Service Report which quantifies information on how they see their own behaviour in the workplace. \n\n\nLearn how others perceive their behaviour. This knowledge will assist participants in formulating strategies in more effectively meeting customer needs. \n\n\nBe more qualified to identify various customer behavioural styles whether they are serving them in person or by phone. \n\n\nLean how to adapt their customer relations behavioural style to improve the customer experience. \n\n\nBe more confident in their customer relationship skills. \n\n\nLocation: Next Gen Hub Business Suites \n25A Hunter Valley Rd.\, Orillia\, ON L3V 0Y7 \nSuper Early Bird & Early Bird Deadlines available! \nTo Register: Visit www.prismgroup.ca \nSee the full Workplace Success Series Workshops \n

SUMMARY:2-Day Contact Centre Operations & Management Public Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A contact centre is a vital part of today’s successful businesses. Every one provides contacts through various media but there are very few organizations that operate a fully optimized contact centre. Contact centres are built on five pillars of ‘Strategy’\, ‘People’\, ‘Process’\, ‘Technology’ and Facilities’. Managing an efficient and effective contact centre requires harmony between all these pillars (how they operate and how they impact each other). \nThis workshop\, provides better understanding of these pillars\, how they relate to each other\, how to measure and manage their efficiency and effectiveness and finally how to optimize the operations based on the overall direction of the organization. \nThis workshop includes a simplified assessment survey benchmarking attendees’ contact centres against best-in-class organizations. With the results of this survey\, participants can focus on the key areas for improvement and create a customized improvement plan for their centres. \nFor more information\, please click here  \nTo Register\, please click here

SUMMARY:Influencing Others Without Authority Public Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In today’s fast-paced environment of matrix and cross-functional teams\, the traditional management approach of trying to exert full authority over others through compliance is risky business. Although it is necessary at times for busy professionals\, team leaders\, supervisors\, and managers to be directive with others about getting things done\, it is also likely that the productivity of individuals and teams will improve when they experience the positive effects of influence in a collaborative setting. \nBased on position and interest-based influencing methods from Harvard\, participants will learn and practice influencing using the four step method of gaining attention\, interest\, commitment\, and motivating action. This workshop uses interactive discussions\, case studies\, video reviews\, team exercises\, self-assessments\, and practical action-planning exercises. Consequently\, participants will develop more self-awareness\, learn new productivity tools\, and enhance their performance as negotiators of deadlines\, schedules\, resources\, staff\, budgets\, pricing\, product changes\, and other aspects of managing people and projects to achieve winning outcomes in a collaborative way. \nFor more information\, please click here  \nTo Register\, please click here
