    Exceptional Customer Service for Non-Sworn Professional Staff

    Many of the problems we encounter in the workplace are the result of poor interpersonal communication. Whether we are frustrated by misunderstandings, a lack of information or worrying about how to handle a critical conversation, communication is often at the root of the issue – and – the solution. By learning how to communicate more effectively, we can stop problems from escalating and create a more efficient and harmonious workplace environment. We can also present ourselves more positively, both to colleagues, clients, and professional partners such as community-based organizations.
