 The Empathic Practice     
 Joan Garbo
Over the past 23 years, Ms. Garbo has led more than 2000 seminars on topics such as effective communication skills, self-expression, customer service, team-building and other related topics that enable individuals to experience life more fully and accomplish their goals.  Her high energy level, sense of humor, and enthusiasm inspire people to action,giving them a renewed sense of purpose and the resources for self-motivation.
 
  The experience of empathy for the patient transforms “customer service”from something staff members must “do” into creating an experience of relationship and exceptional attention to patients.  It creates a true sense of belonging for the patients and a feeling of being known by the doctor and staff.  Noted author and speaker Ross Shafer defines customer empathy as “the art of seeing the transaction through the customer’s eyes.  It is the ability to identify, interpret and appropriately respond to the customer’s emotional state—before, during and after the transaction.” Joan Garbo’s enlightening and entertaining seminar will provide you with the tools you need to use empathy for customers to maintain focus on patient needs and stimulate a“buzz”about your practice that attracts your perfect patients to you.
