OTHER WORKSHOPS IN 2008:
SULTANATE OF OMAN
SECURITY COORDINATION & MANAGEMENT
Crowne Plaza Muscat, Oman; 20th-24th April
This five-day workshop is a comprehensive introduction to the essentials of corporate security management, and is designed to provide full-time security management staff and those for whom security is one of a number of responsibilities with the knowledge and confidence necessary to manage a successful loss prevention operation. The workshop takes the form of lectures, workshops, discussions and exercises, during which delegates, syndicated into groups, will have the opportunity to solve typical security problems.
EFFECTIVE COMPLAINT HANDLING
InterContinental Muscat, Oman; 5th - 6th May
The customer that we already have could be up to 5 times more profitable than the new ones. The customers' loyalty is critical to any organization since the business environment becomes more and more competitive. Creating and maintaining customer loyalty also depends on effective service recovery (when things go wrong during our interaction with the customer). In other words an effective complaint handling strategy, handling the questions, suggestions, there is the need for an effective customer's feedback system and a friendly service replacement policy. According to the 2004 National Complaints Culture survey (NCCS) carried out in London, 90% of consumers admit that they will repurchase from a company if their complaint is handled well.
EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP
InterContinental Muscat, Oman; 27th - 28th October
Gandhi stated "Our power is our freedom to choose our response". Through Emotional Intelligence one grasps an understanding of behaviours, and the reason why we do and act in certain ways.
We wouldn't dream of letting a pilot fly a passenger aircraft without a flight certificate. The consequences would be disastrous. Nor would we allow doctors, IT specialists, engineers, painters and chefs to do their jobs without the right education. Nevertheless, managers and supervisors without any leadership training are asked to lead and manage others. This can have disastrous effects on the organization like poor motivation, mistakes, loss of money, loss of staff motivation and clients or an unfortunate image and bad decisions, poor communication, frustration, lack of trust, stress and conflict.
Just as it is necessary to teach a pilot to fly, it is necessary to teach a manager or team leader on how to lead.
UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
REID TECHNIQUE OF INVESTIGATIVE INTERVIEWING FOR LOSS PREVENTION & CORPORATE SECURITY PERSONNEL
Hyatt Regency Dubai, UAE; 8th - 11th June
The Reid Technique® of Interviewing and Interrogation for Loss Prevention & Corporate Security Personnel is a four-day workshop specifically designed for corporate security, loss prevention and asset protection professionals as well as Human Resources personnel.
During the first three days of the workshop, participants will learn the Reid Technique® of Interviewing and Interrogation, widely recognised as the most effective means available to exonerate the innocent and identify the guilty. The workshop is based on the basic tenet of the Reid Technique®, as taught by John E. Reid and Associates, that a custodial suspect must be advised of his rights prior to any questioning about a criminal act.
The fourth day is designed to build on the information learned and particular emphasis is placed on how to elicit information from the suspect during the interview stage that will serve as the basis for developing an individualised interrogational approach, based on the suspect's profile and characteristics. Without exception, past participants have commented on the value of the advanced techniques learned which give them a better understanding of the interrogation process, and allow them to enhance their skill level by learning new techniques and tactics.
