Answer:

The Bridge Hotel’s complaint handling policy states that they aim to resolve complaints as quickly as possible and will give customers a timeframe of no more than 2 days to hear the outcome of their complaint. If the complaint cannot be resolved, it will be referred to the Hotel Manager.

However, a 2-day timeframe for complaint resolution is generally considered to be a reasonable response time, and the Bridge Hotel’s commitment to resolving complaints quickly and providing contact details for further action if necessary shows a customer-centric approach to complaint handling.

Japanese culture:

Italian culture:

Answer:

In Japanese culture, there are different levels of formality in language that are used depending on the situation and relationship between the speaker and listener. For example, “keigo” or polite language is used in formal or respectful situations such as speaking with elders or in business settings.

In American culture, there is less emphasis on formal language and there are not as many distinct levels of formality in language. However, it is still important to use appropriate language depending on the situation and the relationship between the speaker and listener. For example, using more formal language in a business setting or when speaking with someone in a position of authority.

A template is provided in Appendix B of the Student User Guide. However, if your RTO has provided you with an assessment cover sheet, please ensure that you use that.

Activities

Complete the following activities.

Carefully read the following scenario.

 The Bridge Hotel offers high quality accommodation and dining, as well as conference services for businesses that include on site catering, and other events such as weddings.  For the purposes of this assessment, you are employed as a Chef for the company. Your main role is preparing menus and food, but you also assist with answering customer enquiries, liaise with other staff and suppliers and complete a range of general administration duties. Customer enquiries are received by the hotel’s reception and forwarded onto you for action. Today you have been forwarded enquiries from three customers which you need to respond to. Their details are included in the customer information document. You will participate in a role play with each of the three different customers. You will also need to refer each customer’s enquiry to three different staff members.

 Read the case study information provided above, as well as the List of Services provided by Bridge Hotel. Read the Customer Service Policy and Procedures to ensure that you understand the procedures to be followed, including: For each customer, and based on situation, consider what would be the best way of communicating with them, for example, through face to face means, by telephone or in writing.

 The text of the email should be in grammatically correct English, written in an appropriate (polite, business-like) style. It should give what you consider would be the most appropriate communication method for each customer, indicating why you have chosen this method. Answer: Dear Assessor, I am writing to you regarding the customer enquiries that I received today. I have considered the most appropriate communication method for each of the customers and I would like to share my thoughts with you. For Customer 1, who is inquiring about wedding catering options, I believe the most appropriate communication method would be a phone call. This will allow me to provide a more personal and immediate response to their questions, as well as answer any follow-up questions they may have. For Customer 2, who is inquiring about conference catering options, I believe the most appropriate communication method would be an email. This will allow me to provide a written response that they can refer back to if needed, as well as include any relevant attachments or menus for their consideration. For Customer 3, who is inquiring about general dining options, I believe the most appropriate communication method would be an online chat. This will allow for a quick and easy exchange of information, and also give the customer the opportunity to ask any follow-up questions in real-time. I will also be referring each customer’s enquiry to three different staff members as per the instructions. Thank you for your attention to this matter.   Best regards, Alosha Tiwari

 Assume that all three customers have come to the hotel to meet you so your communication with them will be conducted face to face. Participate in each customer roleplay at the date and time specified by your assessor. You must ensure that you meet personal presentation and hygiene requirements as set out in the Customer Service Policy and Procedures. You will be assessed on this. When exploring catering options with the customers, which is the primary focus of the discussion, you may provide any information in relation to food and beverages that you feel would be appropriate in the situation. You will need to: Note that during the roleplay, at least one customer will express dissatisfaction. You are required to respond proactively to this to avoid a complaint being made.

 Follow up the customer’s requests for information that you were unable to answer. This will be an email to the appropriate staff member as set out in the Customer Service Policy and Procedures and within the designated timelines.
