No, the Customer Isn’t Always Right

Anyone who has ever served a customer has been told that “The Customer is Always Right.” Even though we know the customer isn’t always right (some lie, steal, manipulate, etc.), it is important to remember that “the customer is always the customer.” The question to consider: “Is this a customer we want in our library?”

 

As libraries continue to strive to deliver excellent customer service and experiences, they must remember to focus on the needs of the internal customer (their employees) too, because a library without great people is a loss to its campus and community.

 

This interactive and informative webinar for managers and supervisors at all types of libraries will focus on creating a library workspace experience that customers and employees will enjoy.

 

Participants will learn:

  • To Determine if a Customer is Worth Keeping
  • When to Fire a Customer
  • How to Focus on Attracting the “Right” Customers
  • Best Practices of Employee-First Companies
