How can problem solving skills boost customer satisfaction in banking? (2024)

Problem solving almost always includes the reduction of personal ego. Find ways to recognize your part in causing friction in process as well as others. When you seek improvement in your own actions, leading others to an equitable solution is easier.

Problem solving skills involves being able to quickly and proactively identify and analyse a customer issue. Because failures always occur, swift reparation is of utmost importance. Explain why the failure has occurred and follow to a logic conclusion that the failure is addressed while always putting the customer first

As habilidades de resolução de problemas são muito importantes para o profissional que está na ponta atendendo o cliente.Na minha visão são compostas de soft skills tais como inteligência emocional, empatia e resiliência mas também do quanto o profissional domina ou não as informações e ferramentas técnicas e operacionais dentro da sua atividade específica, uma vez que um profissional bem preparado e com sólida experiência e mais capaz de resolver problemas, e de forma mais agil. Isso proporciona uma melhor experiência para o cliente, fazendo com que sua confiança e engajamento com a marca aumente

The ability to empathise with customers has helped me a lot to solve problems for them, even when a problem is not allowing a visible/available solutions, the path to solving is one of discovery and has always led me to customer satisfaction. After all, every problem does have a solution so as the 'humans' in between, we are to inspire each other and support the approach of problem solving and finally, conclude with a solution, or steps to solution.

Especialistas em comportamento apontam que um cliente que teve uma experiência positiva na solução de um conflito aumenta sua confiança e fidelização na marca, onque aumenta a conversão de novos negócios. O outro lado da moeda já aponta que uma má experiência além de ocasionar a perda do cliente faz com que esse indivíduo verbalize e atue como um detrator contumaz, prejudicando demais a opinião comum e a percepção de não clientes dessa marca específica.

Tenho bastante segurança para falar neste assunto pois atuo a cerca de uma decada em agência bancária e minha base sempre foi um mix de conhecimento e domínio das ferramentas e sistemas gerenciais aliado a uma atitude protagonista e empatia com o cliente atritado.Existem algumas técnicas que podem ser exploradas, competências e especialmente as soft skills pois de nada adianta saber operar o sistema mas não ser capaz de acalmar quando necessário ou de se impor quando o cliente se exalta e chega a ser desrespeitoso. E algo que pode ser treinado é desenvolvido, mas não se desenvolve do dia para a noite, precisa de certa "rodagem" e de capacitação, feedbacks e realinhamentos por parte dá liderança.

Acredito que a resposta acima é muito genérica e focada apenas em metodologia. No meu caso não atuo assim, não tenho um "plano perfeito" antes de ouvir o que o cliente tem a dizer.Mas sempre começo pelo que chamamos de deixar o cliente "esvaziar", deixa-lo contar sua história (aqui escuta ativa é essencial) e desta forma conseguimos com que ele se desarme. Sempre peço desculpas em nome da Instituição pois nenhuma empresa tem por objetivo trazer problemas e que nos estamos lá justamente para apoia na resolução do seu conflito, pois é nossa preocupação entender quais motivos levaram ao atrito. ( aqui muito cuidado pois existem certas situações onde alguns clientes tentam se valer de brechas ou de ameaças onde não cabe responsabilidade nossa)

I remember a time where I had to apply a discount using percentages and ensuring as a company we are still on profit margins and making sure the customer gets a good service. Problem solving starts from showing empathy and asking customers what they want and looking at their request alongside the black and white of the company.. If their requests matches then go ahead to make them happy.

Problem solving is al logical thing. 1. Never see the problem as a problem, see it as a opportunity to grow a push yourself and the system to what it needs to give the customer. 2. Customer service is all about problem solving and if there is no problem there is no growth.
