Service Culture Essentials

While doing research for a client, I ran across a piece of information from Gallup. I’m not sure the date of the research; nevertheless, it is timeless and trusted advice for those of you looking to build a culture of extraordinary service.  All of this easier said than done…

Gallup has found that a service-centered culture requires:

  • a committed leadership team that champions a service first philosophy
  • employees who are ardent about and understand the benefits of outstanding service and quality
  • the strategic alignment of the organization’s plan, policies, and procedures to be a service-focused organization
  • an established process to document and disseminate organizational knowledge, strengths and weaknesses
  • a learning organization with an ongoing commitment to improving performance

I would add one more:  extend the same importance to your employees, associates and  vendors as you do your customers.

How does your organization stack up?
