Shaping up to the Competition
Are you looking for a practical, motivational and creative way to reward but still educate your staff, be it front-line, administrative, sales or secretarial. How about presenting them with a motivational talk/demonstration and a great manual which teaches responsibility of the self?
According to Lynne Scott, it is the ideal way to show staff you care and to help your organisation to grow in unity and excellence, helping staff to become more positive and to gain more confidence in themselves.
“Image, it’s a very diverse subject” Says Lynne, my course and training programme/manual, is devised to meet the needs of organisations who rely on their staff in general, front-line staff, sales representatives or staff that are on the ground with labour intense positions. Not only does Lynne inspire staff to make the best of themselves, but they have great fun in the process, and the result is the company, brand and the image of the organisation is intensified to that of world class standards. People love good customer service and a great image displayed in the power of their visual presentation. Customers respond well and look forward to talking to staff that are well groomed and have correct business etiquette and conduct themselves well.
Image is an intensely personal issue and few of us are ever fortunate enough to receive objective, constructive suggestions on how to adapt to changing circumstances, be it a promotion, a new position or the corporate environment- climbing the ladder. For some of us, it’s a question of ensuring that we maintain a current, up-to-date look that reflects well on both ourselves and the company we represent. For managers it is about the health and wellness of employees and retaining happy, healthier staff, driving better work environments.
Lynne is capable of many diverse levels of grooming and has plenty of tips on etiquette and business dining, Lynne runs her training course to all levels of staff, which is fantastic and has shared some of her most valid buffet tips with us today:
At the buffet table:
• Stand in line and never complain about it, your turn will come
• Use the utensils given; fingers are not utensils
• Eat your courses in an acceptable manner and order; it is unappetising to others to look at a plate filled with oysters, roast beef, lasagne and pudding all at the same time
• Remember, a buffet is a choice in smaller amounts, not an occasion for “all you can eat”. It is better to get up for seconds
• Don’t try and hurry a buffet lunch because of your situation. If you need to eat quickly, go to the drive-thru
