Introduction
At Bristol Business School, our portfolio of open programmes offers you and your business a flexible learning solution. We have a range of programmes covering a wide range of topics, including Finance, Strategy, Marketing, Leadership, Coaching and Mentoring, Innovation, and Design Thinking, among many others. Our programmes are delivered by experienced practitioners and academics, who combine cutting-edge thinking with a practical, real-world focus, ensuring our programmes meet professional and industry needs.
Course introduction
Management gurus talk about the need to `delight' customers, meaning to exceed their expectations in a way that is surprising and pleasing. This, however, is easier said than done; attempts to offer new and unusual service experiences can be expensive, time-consuming and can often backfire. This two-day programme is designed to get behind the hype to look at the practicalities of creating satisfying service experiences. You will learn techniques for managing and developing the many elements that contribute to a service experience. You will also explore different ways of pursuing that elusive goal of `the delighted' customer.
Who is it for?
This programme is designed for anyone who is involved in service management or delivery. You may already be in a managerial position as a leader of a small team or a larger department, or are about to step into a managerial position. The programme is designed to suit a range of commercial and non-profit sectors, including services, retail, manufacturing, charity and the public sector.
What do I get out of it?
By the end of the programme you will:
- Understand how the servicescape supports the management of the customer experience
- Create, design and delivery new service products
- Monitor and control the delivery of customer experiences
- Understand the potential and limitations of self-service technology
- Gather data which enables continuous improvement
