Look at these dialogues first:,1,Back,Text A,Para.2 Distribution Manager: “ Those sales guys are prima donnas. Theres one - Kevin - who is the worst offender of all. Hell always blast into my office at the eleventh hour with an emergency delivery one of his customers absolutely has to have the next morning on a “first-out”. He is always armed with every reason imaginable as to why he couldnt give me more notice, but the bottom line is that he wants me to “bump” another customers order and slide his customer in its place. I cant possibly do my job when every order he enters is an exception to the rule.”,2,3,4,5,Back,Text A,Para.3 Salesperson: “Getting our distribution manager to cooperate is the biggest hurdle I face every day. He has never grasped the concept of customer service. He does everything in his power to keep me from taking care of my customers needs. Just last week he told me that I had to get on a schedule like everyone else or my customers could just wait.”,6,7,8,Back,Text A,Para.4 Credit Manager: “ These salespeople around here are like a bunch of grade school kids. They practically never fill out their credit applications properly. And when it comes to credits, we need a full-time person to correct their mistakes. Customers are forever refusing to pay invoices because theyre priced differently from the prices they were quoted.” Para.5 Sound familiar? Could this be your organization? Para.6 Whats wrong in these companies and whats contributing to so much hostility are customer-service related. Not external customers, but internal customers.,9,10,11,Back,Text A,Para.7 The distribution manager sees Kevin as a selfish and inconsiderate salesperson who totally disregards the systems the distribution department has designed. Of course, the distribution manager is partly correct. Kevin does appear to be a last minute sort of person. Theres also validity in the credit managers criticism of the salespeople. By nature, many salespeople are better at building customer relationships than they are at paperwork.,12,13,14,Back,Text A,Para.8 However, Kevin is also an internal customer to distribution and administration. Kevin generates the sales and gross profit that make the distribution and administration job necessary. Without Kevin - and others like him - this company would not need a distribution department or a credit department. And, in return, distribution and administration are also internal customers of the sales force. Without their willingness to service customers, salespeople are helpless.,15,16,Back,Text A,Para.9 It helps when employees in various departments take time to understand that different talents are required to perform different jobs, and that we have the common goal - serving their customers, both external and internal.,17,Back,Background Information,Conflict in the Workplace,Conflict in the workplace can be a significant drain on personnel and financial resources in your company.
