Testimonial - Glasgow City Council
Just
recently Star Trac
demonstrated how
they "Go the extra Mile" for Glasgow City Council's Glasgow Club, by sponsoring (and paying for!) a range of comprehensive training programmes for club staff provided by Synergy Training & Development.
The training coincided with the final week of refurbishment of the council's Springburn Leisure Centre.
32 of the staff experienced the power of the Insights Team Dynamics training, with every member of staff receiving an in depth personal profile highlighting their personality style, who in the team is their opposite, their strengths and strategies for communicating with them personally.
On the third
day of training
the team underwent
the "Member Journey" covering
topics such
as....valuing
members, understanding
why members
(emotionally)
join, identifying
and creating
the clubs USPs,
strategies
on how to keep
members happy
and even how
to sell to
them in a style
the customer
prefers.
What the staff had to say...
“Well,
what can I say,
I'm still trying
to scrape some
of the staff
from the ceiling!!!
Motivational,
enlightening,
absorbing, thought
provoking, new
found skills,
yet more "tools" to
use in my job,
increased my
knowledge and
understanding
of staff and
customer interaction
- are just some
of the phrases
used to describe
a mind blowing
3 day's. Many
Thanks once again” Ian McKnight, Area Manager
"The 3 days
training from
Synergy was extremely
enlightening.
As assistant
manager, I communicate
daily
with customers,
front-end staff
and management.
The training
has helped me
understand the
greatly differing
personality types,
which
in turn
aids the communication
and understanding
between myself
and my fellow
employees and
of course
the
customers! I've
seen amazing
responses from
the
staff, everyone
is pitching in
as a team more
than ever!!"
Jeff Lennox, Assistant Manager
"The
main difference
the training has
created, is the
massive shift in
the attitude of
the staff towards
getting the centre
open on time and
making a success
of it all! This
type of training
was completely
new to most of
the staff, who
have said nothing
but good things
since. Altogether
a fun, highly interactive
and highly entertaining
3 days, which we
have already benefited
from. Everyone
can't wait to open
our doors and put
our new skills
to good use!!"
Lee Kennedy,
Assistant Manager
