The Customer Comes second may be just what your company needs to bring FUN back into the workplace while your customer's benefit from incredible innovative customer service. This is a multi faceted book jam packed with creative ideas to help your company. Hal Rosenbluth & Diane McFerrin Peters share Rosenbluth's secrets to becoming the Global Travel Management Firm they are today while also having been named one of the Top Ten Best Companies to work for! I have used these ideas repeatedly to help my company, and I am already beginning to see the positive effect that putting my employees first is having on them as well as on my clients. What a great message this is in today's world. I was reviewing some ideas in the book recently while traveling & the person next to me had read it, and was raving about it's unique content & practical approach. I highly recommend reading this book. It stands above the rest on the never ending bookshelf of business self help books.

Valuable advice, especially in a tight labor market
I had the pleasure of attending a speech by one of the authors of this book, and was very impressed with the business philosophy and subsequently with the book itself. Any company desiring to remain competitive, and even to excel, in today's excruciatingly tight labor market could benefit from the ideas and concrete, real-life (and very interesting) examples provided. Any consumer can tell a story or two about the very positive or negative image a company projected through one of its employees--the "face" that company presents to its customers, for better or worse. This book is a real wake-up call to industry, and offers substantive advice which can improve any business from the ground up. Greater employee loyalty and enthusiasm, plus the concomitant benefits to customers, could result from implementation of these sound ideas. As a business owner of many years, I recommend the book very highly.
