What is a successful customer service culture in the 2020s?
We define a successful customer service culture as one where you:
- Create connection and solutions for customers
- Balance the rules with the reality of a situation for a customer
- Achieve the organisation's efficiency needs while focusing on the emotional needs of the customer
To achieve this, you need highly emotionally and socially intelligent employees who can handle the people stuff in business. The new era of customer service has evolved from transactional needs to relational needs.

Here’s how we do it: the 21 Service Habits
“If you pick the right small behavior and sequence it right, then you won’t have to motivate yourself to have it grow. It will just happen naturally, like a good seed planted in a good spot.” ― BJ Fogg
We use the analogy of taking small steps towards continuous improvement rather than approaching service culture transformation as big change.
Know Yourself
(Be Present)
Habit 1 to 7
Service starts with you. Before we even consider the customer, we need an awareness of how we show up.
Understand Others
(Be Connected)
Habit 8 to 14
Through the process of empathy you are able to make people feel seen, heard and understood.
Act Consciously
(Be Kind)
Habit 15 to 21
It’s knowing that your behaviours throughout the ordinary moments contribute to someone’s life.

Service Habits
Our Promise
Mastering Service Habits is a game changing cultural program that begins with inspiration and ends in transformation. It has the most sustainable long-term impact as it targets all levels of leadership and all employees in the organisation (top down and bottom up) The results being that the Service Habits becomes part of your cultural DNA.
Senior staff at Melbourne Airport explain the change in culture and service standards as a result of the customised ServiceQ program covering their specific values and service behaviours.
Company Values and Service Behaviours
Customisation of a service culture is all about contextualisation. We immerse deeply in your world and learn your unique market or industry, your customers specific needs and the brand promise that you deliver across all human touch points.
A strong set of company Values and Service Behaviours explicitly articulated in a business is the strongest foundation you can create prior to embarking on any service culture initiatives. Without a clear framework for employees to live by, you are leaving the consistency of service and quality of service to chance.
We would be happy to work through a diagnostic and proposal to suit your needs and share some of our customised service program case studies to inspire you further.
This is the greatest compliment to a Service Habits pathway.
If you are:
- about to revisit your company values and behaviours
- need to refresh your existing company values and behaviours
- have clear company values but no service behaviours and/or
- need a solid partner in exciting, engaging and rolling out your company values and service behaviours
...then a customised solution is for you.
