5/31/07 - Advice for the Kids
On Tuesday, I asked readers to share their wisdom concerning what they would tell their teenagers about customer service that could help them be better at their summer jobs and throughout their lives. As always, many of you shared some great advice that I will pass along today.
One person wrote, "Your job is to treat every customer the way you'd want to be treated and mean it." Perhaps this lesson was lost on many of our current CEOs as evidenced by the grand disconnect discussed yesterday. It seems so many forget what it is like to be on the other side of the customer experience.
Another piece of advice is to make customer decisions as if you are the boss. Of course, advice like this should come with all sorts of warning labels and be embraced within the realities of the job description but the essence is spot on. A young person that embraces their hourly job with enthusiasm is one that knows they can and should make a difference regardless of the job description. It's easy to spot the person simply waiting for the shift end because that is the person that takes away from rather than adds to the customer experience. Do you agree?
