Customer Reviews

Rating: 4 out of 5
Highly readable text, coherent examples and critical ideas
Mr. Hayes presents several good ideas in this very readable text. Although this book is most useful now in Age of the Malcolm Balderidge Award, I offer Kudos to Mr. Hayes on his lack of faddish management lingo.

The author introduces the idea of customer surveys, gives solid ideas on the backbone of a survey, summarizes what actions lead to a survey, discusses the basis of survey design, and touches on the math needed to analyize survey results.

Excellent beginner's guide.


Rating: 3 out of 5
easy to understand general overview
This book provides a general conceptual approach to its topic along with specific examples of how survey techniques are used. It would be useful to executives with a desire to understand a little more about the field. Unfortunately, it is not particularly helpful in terms of actually doing the techniques it presents. Perhaps more importantly, it doesn't cover the particular pitfalls/limitations you need to be aware of when trying to interpret data presentations.
