An old school philosophy when dealing with brave telemarketers. TrulyYourVA guest Richard Blank

TrulyYourVA with Janis podcast guest Richard Blank Costa Rica's Call Center.

Janis Melillo: Internal interpersonal communications conflict? Like in reference to like management strategy? Yes. Must of, especially with training, how many people that you've trained, of course those skills must have been like second nature to you.

Richard Blank: Well, I believe in manners and you and I have spoken off the air multiple times.

I believe that we were raised in, in similar fashions from our grandparents and parents, so, I'm coming to the table with agents in a very strict Catholic country, so it's very family oriented, even multi-generational family, so people do live with others that influence them. And secondly, I believe in empathy and dignity.

As long as I don't treat somebody like a robot or a number, I properly prepare them and support them. Why shouldn't I get that sort of positive reinforcement where people would wanna continue to walk with? To grow with me. And also there are things that do happen outside the office that may affect their work performance here.

So as long as we take people's personal situations into consideration. I think there's a better chance to find sort of resolutions and also solidifying even a better relationship cuz we were able to get through certain challenges together. Right. And so I really take it from a case by case old school basis when I'm dealing with the people that work with me.

Janis Melillo: Wow, that is amazing. So you.
