Customer De-escalation Training

This 3-hour training prepares new Store Managers and Team Leads to respond confidently to angry or difficult customers while supporting their teams on the sales floor.

Participants will learn how to recognize early signs of a problem customer, reduce tension during a rising disagreement, and guide conversations toward a respectful resolution. The course also covers practical approaches for handling product returns that fall outside published limits, including when to apply judgment, when to involve leadership, and how to communicate decisions clearly.

• Identify behaviors and situations that may lead to escalation.
• Use de-escalation techniques with customers and sales representatives.
• Handle return exceptions professionally and consistently.
• Check understanding through incremental knowledge checks in each module.
