Power of Thank You - Teri's Tip #26

Two words:  Thank You.  Two very powerful words.  Don't take long to say, but go a loooong way in making someone feel appreciated.  Don't feel comfortable saying these two words out loud?  Then write them down.  The kind of paper doesn't matter - the two words do!

Thank you, muchos gracias, merci beaucoup....whatever your language, the meaning sent and the feeling received are all the same. 

THANK YOU!

Customer Service is Not An Option - Teri's Tip #25

Customer Service is not an either/or proposition for a business.  Customer Service is not an add-on for a business.  Customer Service is the way to do business.

In order to be effective and consistent, Customer Service must be engrained into the culture of the organization.  Leadership actions to create this culture are sytematic and process-oriented to be sustainable over time.

Clear Definition of "Quality" Teri's Tip #24

A simple definition for Quality is "conformance to requirements".  When you tell employees to Do It Right the First Time.  The "It" is the requirement.  Therefore, you must be very clear in describing the requirements and verifying they are understood. 

Conformance to the requirements that have been agreed to and understood, must then be achieved 100% of the time.  Anything less, is not Quality.
