THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE CLIENT
How can we meet the needs, wants and expectations of customers, clients and members that we don’t understand? People who don’t necessarily think like us? Who don’t speak our ‘language’? How can we build connection, rapport, understanding and trust with people who have different beliefs, expectations, communication styles, personalities and objectives? How can we produce great outcomes if we can’t navigate the inevitable psychological, physiological, sociological, cultural, behavioural and emotional differences that exist between people? The short answer is, we can’t. Not optimally, anyway. Shiny equipment isn’t enough. New tech isn’t enough. Awesome music isn’t enough. Fancy change rooms aren’t enough. They’re all great but in an industry dependent on connection, credibility, care, rapport, trust and happy customers, understanding the people we serve is paramount.
