"I appreciate that Panera Bread puts a significant focus on listening to customer needs. I believe that 'You Speak, We Listen' means that we take the time to hear our customers out if they are not pleased with any aspect of their visit. If I encountered a customer who was unhappy with their experience, I would carefully listen to their grievance and ask open-ended questions to ensure that I had a full understanding of the issue. I would let them know that Panera cares about their experience and that it was my job to make things right. I would ask the customer what I could do to repair the situation. Then, I would do what I could to make things right, abiding by Panera Breads' guidelines. I am eager to gain further training in regards to customer service and dispute resolution."
