While at a customer service seminar, I asked the presenter, “can good service be taught to anyone or do you need to be brought up a certain way?”  The presenter didn’t hesitate and said, “Yes.  Anyone can learn good service.”   With that advice, I was determined to train on customer service for which is […]

Service Across the Pond
