P.E.R.S.O.N. centered service Presented by: Dr. Mike Bosley Executive Dean, Lake Nona Campus
The art of hosting… • Let’s plan a party! • What steps do you take? • How do you make people feel comfortable? • What makes you want to serve?
Strategies for P.E.R.S.O.N. centered service • People (students, other faculty/staff, community) are who we serve • Everyone is involved in providing quality service • Realistic service is important • Show people that you understand their situations, respect their needs, and sympathize with them • Open environment, where staff feel comfortable openly discussing mistakes, less-than-perfect service, policies and procedures that lock you into less than desirable service, and ways to improve • Not just a number, but a person, welcome people in a warm, equal, and friendly way
Activity What does it mean to be person centered?
