What customers are saying

" Laurie is a dynamic and engaging facilitator who has the ability to make participants feel comfortable and at ease, leading to a greater level of learning transfer.

We have had Laurie develop several customized training programs for our Four Diamond, Five Star property in the past, including leadership, customer service, health & safety and interview training.

We find that the content of Laurie's training programs are consistently meaningful and relevant leading participants to an increased degree of involvement in the entire training process. "

" Our company has been around since 1919 and service excellence has always been a high priority for us. We enjoy a solid reputation as a quality company with high quality services. We are always looking to raise the bar higher so we retained Laurie Flasko to put together a customer service and leadership training program.

Everyone on our team was very enthusiastic about the training we received from Laurie. She took the time to understand our company and then used that understanding to personalize the program for us. She has a teaching style that is both fun and highly engaging. This translates into a more enjoyable learning experience and, in the end, the message sticks.

We learned tools that have made us better leaders and, at the same time, these tools are helping us to do an even better job in satisfying customers. Laurie’s training program has made a real difference for us. The return on investment has been measurable and we believe the benefits will be long lasting. "

" I consider Laurie part of our company.

Working with Laurie was a pleasure; she took the time to really understand our company and our needs. A full day workshop was created for our Customer Service department that was not only tailored to fit, but was engaging throughout. Our employees are still talking about it.

Laurie also conducted a follow up meeting with our General Managers to review the strengths and weakness of our customer service department.

Going forward Laurie Flasko Consulting will be part of our team."

" I’ve attended several training sessions by Laurie Flasko. She led an inspiring workshop for us when hosting General Motors, Women’s advisory Council annual meeting with our National and all locals at Cami.

You will never be bored. Laurie kept us all fully engaged and enthusiastic. She helped me understand that no matter what field you are in, customer service is critical and virtually the same. We all have something to learn in this area.

She inspired me to be a better leader and realize that all the people I work with day after day are one of my customers. "

" Laurie is an engaging speaker who delivers an excellent program. Her down to earth approach is appealing and helps learners relate to what she is teaching. Laurie’s common sense approach to customer service training made it easy for ORCA’s members to understand how it applied to their workplace, their team, and to them. It’s always a pleasure working with Laurie. "
