Customers. By now, you know how important they are. So do your competitors. But most companies simply haven't delivered on the promise of customer focus. That gives you an immense opportunity—if only you can grab it. CustomerCulture shows you how.
Author Michael Basch created FedEx's legendary sales and service organization, founded its Business Logistics Division, and built its $100 million SuperHub. Since then, companies worldwide have called upon his unparalleled insight into customer service. Now, he's distilled that insight into a hands-on roadmap for every company, regardless of size or industry.
No more lectures. No more "happy talk." No more mission statements. This is a detailed, start-to-finish plan for building a customer-centric culture—and systems that let good people deliver outstanding service.
Talk won't do the job—it will take hard work, and the specific techniques, solutions, and insights you'll find in only one place: CustomerCulture.
* Good people + great systems = extraordinary results Why great systems are your #1 customer differentiator-and how to build them * Real examples, real solutions, real life Specific case studies and techniques from one of the world's leading customer service experts * The six elements of a winning customer culture Vision, values, goals, relevance, feedback, and actions * Inculcating and strengthening a customer-centric business culture Beyond meaningless "happy talk" and mission statements * Why customer systems fail, and how to fix them Identifying systemic causes, ensuring goal clarity, and maximizing feedback * Moving your business up the value curve Meeting customer needs that transcend "mere" products and servicesCustomer focus: Beyond "happy talk"... to action!
Everyone talks about creating a "customer-centered culture." In CustomerCulture, the executive who pioneered FedEx's legendary customer culture shows exactly how to go beyond talk and make it happen-for real! Michael Basch identifies the key cultural obstacles and leadership failures that dilute customer focus, and demonstrates exactly how to build systems and structures that help good people deliver outstanding customer service.
Drawing on lessons learned at FedEx—and at companies ranging from UPS to Cisco to the newest startups-Basch shows how to inculcate customer-focused cultures with the vision, values, goals, relevance, feedback, and actions needed to succeed. Step by step, he identifies the crucial decisions companies must make—and the hard work they can't avoid if they're going to "walk the walk" instead of just talking a good game about customer focus.
