Customer service has
become a central focus of management strategy as companies strive to achieve
excellence in the increasingly competitive market place. It is indeed the new
standard by which customers judge organisations and by which organisations evaluate
themselves. Organisations have come to understand that the opportunities for
growth in the marketplace will not come from new products or markets, but from
the ability to deliver high quality and excellent customer service.

Organisations today are
defining and implementing roadmaps for customer service transformation. They
are improving the ambience of their service outlets, redesigning processes for
improved efficiency, investing heavily in technology to support business
operations, releasing new products to meet perceived customers’ needs,
improving systems and processes for customer complaints handling, paying more
attention to the ‘voice of the customer’ and building a strong customer service
culture.

Organisational Excellence and Service
Excellence
Excellence
While most organisations strive
to improve their service standards through various programmes, ultimately, the
task of providing excellent customer service falls on employees. The success of
the service transformation drive of most organisations today is therefore largely
dependent on individual staff members because it is impossible for an organisation
to excel in customer service without a crop of ‘service excellence driven’
personnel.
