The examples tell the story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Having read many management books by a number of authors, I have to place this one up at or near the top. The thing that makes Donnelly so effective are his examples, both those showing poor and good customer service. The examples are ones that most of us can easily relate to and every time I read the book, I recall new but similar circumstances I have encountered. I believe this book should be required reading for every manager (and even the rest of the staff) who is in the customer service business. Many times we can't realize how bad we are until we hear someone else relate their stories.
A must read for managers and other upper-level employees.

25 Management Lessons from the Customer's Side of the Counter should be read by managers and upper-level employees of all companies. Although the title may lead someone to believe this book enhances marketplace satisfaction for a customer, this book clearly provides lessons to improve the overall quality of a company by improving the many internal aspects of company operations. If your company is not operating to its full potential, I strongly suggest reading this book.
Must read.
