How Fernanda Torres' Humanized Approach Offers Lessons for Customer Service

Last week, Brazil made history by winning gold for national cinema.

My name is Valdeth Lis, and I’m the Product Marketing Analyst here at Dialogi.ai. Today, I’d like to discuss this historic achievement and how Fernanda Torres’ performance teaches us lessons beyond the realm of art, providing insights on creating deep human connections.

Fernanda played Eunice, bringing forth not just the weight and pain of her decisions but also the vulnerability that makes the character so real.

The story transcended the screen, making me feel and believe in her truth as if forming a genuine emotional connection.

Humanizing Customer Service

In customer service, technology often acts as the intermediary in interactions, which is why the human touch is what bridges the connection between agents and customers.

I’ve personally experienced a few instances where I felt truly connected to the support I received. Interestingly, this connection sometimes came through chatbots. When an agent went out of their way to find a different solution outside standard procedures or even followed up to ensure the issue was resolved, I felt more than just someone on the other side of the screen—I felt part of a purpose.

Fernanda Torres became someone I could identify with, or rather, someone with whom I could connect. Likewise, companies can transform their customer service into points of connection. But how?

Recognizing each customer’s individuality

Every interaction is unique and an opportunity to understand a customer’s emotions and needs. Recognizing their individuality makes all the difference.

Demonstrating empathy during interactions

Beyond understanding the type of interaction, offering support during moments of vulnerability creates trust and strengthens relationships.

Crafting unique narratives

Just as Fernanda’s portrayal of Eunice conveyed a unique story, companies must tailor their communication to address each customer’s specific needs. This is key to forming meaningful connections.

Ultimately, what matters most is our ability to connect with one another—whether through acting or customer service. Humanization is an essential factor in building significant connections.
