WEBINAR - How to Raise your Visibility for Career Success

  • Tue 23 May 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
  • Online
    • Susan Heaton-Wright, Superstar Communicator

How is it that some people rapidly climb the career ladder whilst others, who might be equally as good, remain at a lower level? Having studied very successful people; watching their behaviour, actions and attitudes, I have identified key engagements these successful people do in order to be visible to decision makers. And in this time where cuts are being made, you want to be the go to person: the person who is positively noticed – and I don’t mean the loudest person: the last person standing when difficult decisions are made.

"The course will give you an in depth understanding of complaint handling in a regulated environment. We will explore the FCA Complaint Handling rules, and the relevant regulation. We will tackle the lens of viewing complaints as purely a “nuisance” and refocus to see them as an important opportunity for real time feedback and interaction with our customers. We will take a look at the different types of complaints, and the applicable processes and timescales for handling them. We’ll also explore the impact of the new Consumer Duty on complaints handling with particular focus on good outcomes for our customers. Through using interactive exercises and realistic scenarios we will run through examples of complaints and the ways we should and should not handle them."
