El ritmo, tono de voz y el hecho de que solo es discurso, siento que no estoy aprendiendo tecnicas. Compre este curso para poder aprender a ussar tecnicas y recursos, herramientas o aplicaciones que hace este rol mas efectivo dentro de una empresa.

I enjoy thinking about the different personas on the client end and thinking deeper about the approach being more targeted than general customer service.

Everything is so well explained and the flow is perfect. The time allotted for each section is also good as it is not lengthy and keeps you attentive.

It is a good course, me as a person who has learnt Account Management on the go, somebody saying scenarios out loud, gives confidence and a different perspective of solution approach.
By Chantal Pilon on 1/12/2026
The volume was all over the place, and I didn't like the AI aspect of the course. I didn't choose to learn about AI and felt forced to learn about it to get my course completion.
By Leon Jin on 1/1/2026
first of all, clearly understand what kind of characters your client have and need to consider how to get their work more easier and align with the client focus accordingly

La información es clara y concisa, solo el volumen del audio es un poco bajo y hay que esforzarse un poco para escuchar bien. No logre subir más el volumen. Muy buena información y concisa.
