Commitment

Mouton Salon - Thursday, October 06, 2011

Before the start of each shift, we have what we call a "huddle". During these few minutes, we discuss with our team news that everyone should be aware, praises from the previous day, retail rankings and a quote. Lately, we have discussed the importance of commitment. Read these quotes and enjoy!

Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Accordingly a genius is often merely a talented person who has done all of his or her homework.

- Thomas Edison

The successful person makes a habit of doing what the failing person doesn't like to do.

- Thomas Edison

Encourage your people to be committed to a project rather than just be involved in it.

- Richard Pratt

 Commitment is the enemy of resistance, for it is the serious promise to press on, to get up, no matter how many times you are knocked down.

- David McNally

Bar gymnastics

Mouton Salon - Saturday, May 28, 2011

Some people I know work hard to lower the bar at work.

That was my strategy at gym class in high school. Not only did I do the minimum amount permitted, I worked hard to do just a little bit less than that. By the time the semester was over, the teacher was relieved if I even bothered to show up at all.

Most people seek to meet the bar. They figure out what's expected, and do that.

A few people, very few, work to relentlessly raise the bar. She's the one who overdelivers on projects, shows up ahead of schedule, instigates, suggests and pushes.

Raising the bar is exhausting, no doubt about it. I'm not sure the people who engage in this apparently reckless behavior would have it any other way, though. They get to experience a fundamentally different day, a different journey and a different reputation than everyone else.

[Why now? What has changed that makes promoting bar gymnastics more than a selfish effort by the boss to get more labor out of the workforce?

Simple. This is the post-industrial era. Success is not about speeding up the assembly line as much as it relies on individuals able to create leaps forward. The person capable of doing that sort of work is in far higher demand than ever before.]

The Importance of Customer Service

Mouton Salon - Tuesday, April 19, 2011
"Quality in a service or product is not what you put into it. It is wheat the client or customer gets out of it". Peter Drucker

"Quality is never an accident. It is the result of an intelligent decision." John Ruskin

"Hire character. Train skill". Peter Schulz

"A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large." Henry Ford

In any successful business or organization, the commitment to customer service always begins at the top, the company's leaders must buy into the fact that they not only need to meet their customer's expectations, they must strive to exceed them. They must develop a company culture that understands, embraces and executes this concept. In today's world, business competition is tougher than ever. If you can't provide goods or services when somebody wants or needs them, there are often four or five other companies immediately ready to fill this void. You only get one chance to make a good first impression. If the company's leaders do not accept this fact, or are not willing to provide the necessary resources to meet their customer's needs, they will soon find themselves scrambling for business.

Proper training is one way to develop a company culture that embraces excellent customer service. Every employee must understand implicitly what is expected of them when interacting with customers. Is there an established, uniform way to answer the phone? Are there set procedures in place for instances when a customer has a question or problem? Is there an established chain of command to make sure that issues are handled in a timely fashion? And most importantly is everyone trained to carry out these company procedures? How you handle the problem is far more important than the problem itself. A customer must always be made to feel as though their best interests are being given serious consideration, even when you can't give in to their demands. It is far better to say 'no' with a smile, than 'yes' with an attitude.
