  • Walmart said, “When I needed soft skills and call controls eLearning modules for our Walmart.com customer care agents, it quickly became apparent that Myra’s materials were the gold standard.” And Carlson Hotels Worldwide said, I really do love your webinars, Myra. They are very well done and extremely beneficial. I always find little helpful hints in your information.”

  • I have gathered up all of the best de-escalation and call control content from my live, full-day de-escalation workshops…the ones I deliver to companies like Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, Frito-Lay and Vera Bradley  – and neatly packaged it in a high-impact 60-minute brand-new live webinar training.

Escalations are time-consuming and frustrating for everybody, even for customers. I know you don’t want your customers to escalate. Share this video training with your team, and your people will walk away knowing exactly how to preempt an escalation.

Hi Myra, your training yesterday was fantastic. I was even able to apply your de-escalation techniques on my 2-year-old son and it worked like magic. He was having a fit to go to bed and I used your right-brain-left-brain technique. I was able to move him to his left brain by asking the color of his 3 favorite characters and he immediately calmed down and cuddled in bed with me. I thought you would appreciate the feedback 😉 Thank you.
