Customer service training is essential for every employee in the organization, and thus I would encourage staff at the accounting department to access the training. The customer service department requires training because they are always in the frontline of direct interaction with customers. However, other departments in the organization require the training because they indirectly interact with the customers. Some of the skills offered in the customer service training are friendliness, empathy, communication skills patience, and problem-solving skills which may be of great benefits to the workers at the accounting department for better interaction with other employees including those from the customer service department. In addition, the employees at the accounting department also need to understand the impression that the whole company is trying to create to its customers so that they can well fit the organizational culture, and make them have a better focus of the organization mission and vision.
