I was asked how do I deliver a "no" to the customer when they are expecting and demanding a "yes" answer.
2 Answers↳
I would affirm the client by acknowledging how strong of a desire it is to have that feature. I would propose a brainstorming session to look at how we could meet that need in another way that is viable with the company product or service. With this sort of investigation sometimes you can find out a deeper why of the client and come up with a creative solution. And, sometimes the client is looking for something that is not possible and you then need to do the best you can to explain to them why. If you can, work with your dev and TechTeam to find out if there are other solutions available from other providers that can work alongside your product. Less
↳
I explained I would review all the avenues to get a yes and if the answer had to be "no" then that would be the clear and concise message I would deliver. No blaming, no excused, I would present a supportive and final company decision. Less
How do you coach and incentivize people with a limited budget to be the very best they can be for themselves and for the company?
1 Answers↳
It comes down to attitude and using your free resources such as gratitude and a pat on the back for a job well done. Recognizing great performance when it happens in a timely manner and most importantly engaging the employee and making them a part of the solution. People don't like to be talked down to so let them know what is in it for them then coach to that at every opportunity and recognize them again and often - and most importantly MEAN it. Less
