WAYMISH - DVD

Release - 2009

Free Online Preview

A customer approaches your place of business, fully intending to buy something. Then, it happens…something frustrates the customer to the point where she changes her mind and leaves without spending a dime. The "it" is a "WAYMISH" and 2 out of 3 times, it results in the permanent loss of a customer.

WAYMISH is an acronym for: Why Are You Making It So Hard…for me to give you my money? It represents all the slights and indifferences made by employees and organizations that lead customers to believe that you don't really want their business. Things like not listening to what the customer is saying, putting policies ahead of common sense, not attempting to resolve complaints, etc.

Can you afford to create unhappy customers that take their business elsewhere?

Eliminate WAYMISHes and keep customers with this superb customer service program from CRM Learning. Hidden-camera footage reveals service providers in retail, hospitality and banking committing all-too-common WAYMISHes. Then, the show's folksy host walks these employees through the things they can say and do to convey genuine service excellence.

Your trainees will love the way the show's host is COMPLETELY on their side--not trying to embarrass, not trying to preach--just suggesting new more effective ways to handle customer situations.

Skill points include:

  • Quickly Acknowledge Customers
  • Listen Carefully
  • Fix Problems on the Spot
  • Find a Way To Say Yes
  • Coach Each Other
  • Remember that being of service to all customers "IS your job"

The Supervisor Show component plays off the main show and further helps supervisors understand the unique role they play in setting the right tone and working with employees to prevent WAYMISHes. 

Content:

  • DVD of WAYMISH
  • DVD of WAYMISH: The Supervisor Show and The WAYMISH Factor Meeting Opener
  • printed Leader's Guide for WAYMISH with reproducible participant worksheets
  • CD-ROM with WAYMISH PowerPoint Presentation and printable PDFs of participant worksheets

Fancy slaving over a hot stove? Philippa Sibley-Cooke, owner-chef of Est Est Est and Marcus Moore, executive-chef of the Sofitel Hotel, offer many insights to their careers and successes. Their working conditions, however, could not be more different, as they are for their respective apprentices, Joseph and Renae.

Away from the frenzy of the kitchen, Claude Forell, food critic and editor of The Good Food Guide, gives the recipe for a rave review and Judi Sanford from Box Hill Institute of TAFE (training institute for Jamie Oliver's 'Fifteen' Restaurant Australia), examines the food industry from her perspective as Program Manager of Cookery.

Jamie's Kitchen: Fifteen Lessons on Leadership - DVD (English)

Produced - 2004

Free Preview

 

'I've gone from being the boy next door to being the bloke with the weight of the world on his shoulders.' (Jamie Oliver)

Jamie Oliver's passion and vision transformed a bunch of unemployed kids into an efficient, organized team, capable of running a first-class London restaurant, Fifteen.

Jamie is a natural and instinctive leader. And anyone who takes on a leadership role can learn a lot from watching him in action. Part of the new two-part Jamie's kitchen training series, Fifteen lessons on leadership demonstrates that leadership is an activity and not a position. Leaders and potential leaders will identify with Jamie's honesty and openness.

The program covers five key learning points backed up by real examples from Jamie's journey:

Lead the way
Jamie shows how a good leader makes sure everyone is clear about what is expected of them. He also has a clear vision of where he wants the project to go and can communicate this in a way everyone can understand.

Show them how
Jamie is a highly visible leader who sets a great example to his team. He knows that when it comes to leadership, actions speak louder than words. He demonstrates how a good leader is prepared to tackle the unpleasant tasks as well as the pleasant ones.

Believe in them
Jamie shows total belief in his team. His positive approach to coaching, always looking for things to praise, really pays off. Even when his team mess up, he gives them the message that they can and will get it right. He is not afraid to delegate.

Deal with it
Jamie shows enormous responsibility throughout the project, personally, professionally and financially. He understands that if things go wrong, he - and no one else - will carry the can. His honesty in sharing how this affects him will strike a chord with all leaders.

Learn and adapt
Jamie learns continually throughout the project. He learns about himself and about his team, discovering which techniques of leadership work best for each team member. If one way of tackling a problem doesn't work, he tries another.

Program includes: DVD (25 minutes), course leader's guide, self-study workbook, customizable worksheets, powerPoint slides and handouts and poster of key learning points.
