Can you provide an example of a time when you had to adapt your customer experience approach to meet the needs of a customer from a different cultural background? How did you approach the situation and what was the outcome?
A: In a previous role, I encountered a customer from Japan who preferred more formal and structured communication compared to our usual casual approach. I adjusted my communication style by using more formal language and gestures to show respect for their cultural norms. This helped establish trust and rapport, resulting in a successful resolution to their issue. By adapting to their cultural preferences, I was able to provide a positive customer experience and strengthen our relationship.
