Is There A Way To Keep Control Of Your Reception Area And Command The Respect You Deserve? A few weeks ago I went over to a friend s office building to meet her for lunch, and you'll never believe what I saw...... There was the receptionist confronting this huge businessman, who was all decked out like some big-time oil mogul, complete with a threepiece suit, boots and a cowboy hat. He was leaning over the poor lady's desk... yelling at the top of his lungs... swinging his briefcase around... and turning red in the face. I figured he was either going to hit someone or have a heart attack. I m a receptionist, too, and I'll tell you, if he d been at my desk acting like that, I would have been scared speechless. But this receptionist stood up, looked the man straight in the eyes and said something that took the wind right out of him. It doesn t matter what you do, because there s absolutely no way the president can see you now. So either calm down and make another appointment, or I ll call security, she said, with her hand on the phone. I felt like cheering. In a matter of seconds, she took control of a tense situation and settled it with authority and confidence. I wanted to command that kind of respect at my front desk, too. Not that I wasn t a good receptionist already, but there were times when it was so busy or people were so rude that it seemed everything could fall apart at the drop of a hat. Even though my supervisor and I had discussed possible reception-area problems such as nosy visitors, angry ex-employees and thieves, we d never come up with step-by-step procedures for handling these tough situations. Then this brochure from Keye Productivity Center came in the mail. It described a seminar on taking charge of the reception area and, since my supervisor had been to several Keye seminars before, she knew it would be well worth the money and my time. She even arranged for a temporary to fill in while I was gone. A Seminar No Receptionist Can Afford To Miss The seminar put my fears to rest, once and for all. I realized right away that I wasn t alone... there were plenty of other receptionists out there who were just as concerned about managing the front desk as I was. The trainer not only answered questions on a wide range of security issues, but had tried-and-tested techniques I could use to confidently defuse angry people... handle medical emergencies... cope with crank calls... and much more. I couldn t wait to get back and put my new skills to work. The next day in the office I handled a pushy vendor and a demanding client like a pro. It felt terrific! Then just a few days later, my training really paid off. I alerted security to a suspicious person I d sent away from our front desk, and 15 minutes later they caught him red-handed trying to steal equipment from another tenant. Training That s Well Worth Your Investment First of all, think of how much safer you and everyone in your office will feel knowing that you ve been trained to recognize security problems before they become a risk. If you stop just one would-be thief or prevent the loss of a single client, the seminar will have paid for itself. And you can add to that the personal security and satisfaction you ll feel knowing that you're in complete control and prepared to handle the problems that used to intimidate you. There s even a money-back guarantee Keye Productivity Center guarantees you ll learn the valuable and practical skills you need to take full and complete charge of the front desk or they ll give back every penny of your registration fee.

What Would You Do In These Situations? Leo, a 10-year employee who was terminated last week for using illegal drugs, stalks into your reception area where several important clients are waiting for appointments. Leo pounds on your desk and demands to see the personnel director. When you tell him the personnel director has left for the day, he pushes over a potted tree and starts yelling about how the company has ruined his life. How should you handle this? You re busy answering the phone and accepting deliveries when a woman enters the front door and tries to walk past your desk. You call her back. She tells you her name is Laura, that she just needs to drop off some order forms and that she can show herself in. Since you don t know Laura personally, you ask her to wait for a second. But when you turn to take another delivery, she slides past your desk again and disappears down the hall. What should you do? The accounting director, Audry, walks into your reception area looking a little disoriented. You ve heard she s been ill, but before you can say a word she stumbles forward and faints, hitting her head on the corner of your desk. What do you do? Most anything can happen at the front desk... and often does. But with everyone in the office including your boss counting on you to keep the area under control and running smoothly, how can you be sure you ll confidently handle all the problems that come your way?
