-
Improving the quality of written communication with clients.
Solution
Research
Customer satisfaction | Group discussions, 20 participants | Polls | Interviews | Video recording | Summary - Presentation
Employees of the state administration, when providing services, must take care of clearer, closer and fuller communication with the client. Efforts to bring the state administration closer to the citizen by providing an answer in a simple and understandable way, using practical and clear language means, will promote cooperation and ensure customer-oriented operation of the state administration. A situation where the client and the employee of the state administrative institution speak "different languages" is unacceptable. Is communication clear and understandable? Are the responses to the letters formulated in a way that the client can understand? How does the customer feel when he receives the letter?
The research found answers to these and other questions related to customer satisfaction.
The study was conducted by a trainer Reinis Lazda.

Participant feedback
"Fantastic! A professional teacher who adapts to the audience. Theoretically, we had learned all the knowledge at school, but over time, the correct use of the language is forgotten, various nicks and tricks come into it. The teacher refreshed our memory with the help of various examples, how to do it."
"In general, very useful lessons with a professional teacher, qualitatively organized, with a large amount of materials and sources of information that will be useful for future work."
