Customer Service Lunch Talk in Thailand

Delivered privately for organisations in Thailand, this lunch talk runs from 30 to 120 minutes and can be adapted to your industry, team and workplace context.

What is this lunch talk about?

Most service problems start before the fix: a customer not heard, a concern rushed, a response that sounds scripted. This talk looks at what that costs.

The session walks through a ten-step framework, from listening first to sharing what works, and shows where each step fits in a normal working week.

Discussion is grounded in the client's own workplace, so participants leave with habits they can try on the next call rather than abstract theory.

Why this matters at work

  • Customers leave after one bad interaction
  • Small complaints grow into escalations
  • Staff avoid difficult conversations
  • Repeat business quietly disappears
  • The brand earns a reputation for indifference

Common business problems

  • Complaints escalate faster than they should
  • Customers repeat the same issue twice
  • Frontline staff sound scripted and rushed
  • Loyal customers stop coming back
  • Online reviews mention poor service

Learning outcomes

  • Listen without interrupting
  • Calm a tense exchange
  • Personalise each response
  • Turn complaints into solutions
  • Build repeat business
