Those that work in customer service and support know that some of the angriest - and craziest - requests come into their support teams. Handling these challenging requests is often the bane of a service and support professionals' existence, resulting in decreased morale and increased turnover. A support professional unarmed with the appropriate skills and techniques to negotiate an unpleasant interaction may become frazzled or angry, the aftermath of which is a dissatisfied customer. Now, in a Web 2.0 world it is all too easy for a customer to broadcast this dissatisfaction across the Internet, quite possibly affecting the organization's revenue. So how do support teams deliver on their goal of retaining customers and making them happy when they often have prickly customers to support? "What to Say to a Porcupine: Strategies for Dealing with Difficult Customers" explores the use of some of the latest techniques in communications skills and behavioral psychology to break down the mechanics of difficult customer transactions, teaching skills that will help both support professionals and their customers feel at ease in any situation.
