Helen Pettifer Training Ltd Reviews

It was a great course and even after years of being in customer service I was able to take away new learnings. The course was well constructed and the content actually useful for dealing with challenging customers and helping build confidence. It was not just advice on how to deal with difficult customers but also covered of the 'why' and delved into the psychology which I think helps people learning create a deep knowledge. Helen was engaging and led the course well

I liked the way the course itself was not pushy, instead it invited you to engage/comment yourself and share information amongst the participants. Because of this you will feel more confident when talking to a customer.

I enjoyed the course and found the information very useful; I definitely feel more confident in knowing how to handle more challenging phone calls. I liked being able to discuss things as a group and was very happy that there was no role play as I do not enjoy having to do this, and it made me feel less anxious.

Really helpful and engaging course, have taken some takeaways from the course and how customers think etc

A well worthwhile course for anybody who needs to understand the importance of a business's Vulnerable Customer policy and how to put this into practise when dealing with customers. All organisations need to cater for Vulnerable Customers in the modern environment and Helen's course does this in a non threatening and safe environment navigating you through this complex subject in an interesting and stimulating way.

Helen was engaging and knowledgeable. It was a good session with open discussion which I found really useful.

I found the course to be very interesting and eye opening. Helen clearly is very dedicated to supporting vulnerable people and helping others develop how they can support vulnerable people and because Helen was so passionate about the subject matter it was easier to take the information in, it never felt like a lecture or standard work presentation and we had lots of discussions and overall it was much more engaging.

The course has helped me to recognise that we shouldn't just focus on our known vulnerable customers, we should be signposting from the first contact and ensuring all our customers are aware of the support available to them should they need it, rather than when they are already at crisis point. I am looking forward to sharing what I've learned across our organisation. Thank you Helen for sharing your personal experience and heartfelt passion for this subject.

I found the ‘managing suicidal customer conversations’ incredibly insightful. I was blown away by the stats Helen shared, gaining a much deeper understanding of the size of the challenge and the vulnerable groups of people was a real takeaway for me. The course content covered the whole journey from understanding risks & indicators right through to managing, closing & following up on conversations. I will definitely be much more confident if I find myself in a situation where I believe there is a threat to life both personally & professionally.

Very good course and learnt a lot that I will take forward within my role.
