Service staff with emotional intelligence ability can make it works for them when dealing with difficult customers.
Emotional Intelligence is not personality. It is also not about being soft, nice or emotional. Originally coined by US psychologist, Peter Salovey and John Meyer, emotional intelligence refers to a learned ability to perceive, understand and express our feeling accurately and to communicate our emotion so that it works for us; not against us.
By increasing your emotional intelligence skills, it can help you to understand your emotion better; as well as the emotion of the customers. In addition, the ability to manage yourself and to stay motivated in stressful and difficult situations are all the essential skills needed when dealing with customers. Most importantly is the ability to show empathy and to have the emotional connections with customers in their difficult situations make them feel valued and understood. This will greatly help them reduce their frustration and anger in the situation.
