Welcome to – Managing Client Expectations. When a client has a complaint, it is generally because an expectation has not been met. And if staff members aren’t trained to properly address complaints, a client could become confused or angry. In this module, we’ll provide strategies for how staff can effectively manage client expectations and resolve challenging complaints. We will also discuss strategies for dealing with customer complaints effectively to reduce the possibility of repeat calls for the same complaint.
