Who am I?

Andy Harsent

Director and Trainer

     

I have spent almost two decades working in higher education delivering the highest quality services and support, working with hundreds of staff and thousands of customers from a range of different backgrounds and cultures.

My focus is entirely on the core to the success of any organisation: its people. I created Priority People to help others to explore that focus, whether that be the staff that keep the services running or looking at ways to work more closely with customers to give them the best experiences possible. Staff that feel they are doing the best they can will always provide a better service. Customers and users are a lot more likely to come back for more if they feel their experiences are of the highest standard and personalised to their needs.

Traditional corporate cultures and "the customer is always right" approaches can work against these successes, and a few small shifts in awareness and attitude can make all the difference. I can work with existing processes you might have, whether they are homegrown or developed from a framework like ITIL, and help to add the personal element that brings people together and pushes your services another step towards excellence.

You can reach out to me to discuss any of the following:

  • Bespoke training courses covering a range of people and technical skills.
  • Project management for designing, developing, implementing and supporting services.
  • User experience exploration of services, working with people to see what works and what can be better.
  • Reviews of best practices in managing services, combining formalised processes with personal experiences.

I'm always happy to have a conversation, so feel free to get in touch!
