people tend to display the following key characteristics:
• positive attitude
• people orientation
• organizational skills
• analytical skills
• customer focus (natural empathy)
• understanding of the link between CRM and profitability
On the subject of empathy: Empathy is about understanding,
not necessarily agreeing. Effective customer focus enables the
organization and its staff to see both sides, and to work with the
customer to arrive at a mutually satisfactory and sustainable
solution. Agreement alone amounts to capitulation, which is
neither practicable nor sustainable.
