Preparation before interactions

Greet guests and colleagues with friendly and empathetic greetings

  • Communicate clearly. Speak in a calm tone.  Allow your customer or colleague time to ask questions after you speak

  • Keep your public space clean and organized

  • Ensure name badges are worn when you are on duty and always when in our public spaces 

  • Place electronic devices on silent mode and never use them when engaging a customer or colleague, unless it is to assist with the interaction

  • Prepare to engage in conversation by practicing prior to interaction. Smile and make initial eye contact
