What do successful organizations do that makes them consistently successful? It is simple and yet, rare: they understand their customer’s needs and expectations, and then, exceed them. With years of experience and research developed while working with Fortune 500 companies, authors Mark David Jones and J. Jeff Kober have created the World Class Excellence Model. Supported by the many years of experience the authors earned while leaders at Disney, this model builds on the core principles of values and vision, and reveals the 6-Ps primary delivery methods of world-class excellence that allows you to transform your organization’s culture and brand. This proven model serves as a guiding beacon for leaders, aligning the work to bottom-line results, long-term success, and a world-class reputation. Presented in an engaging and straight forward style with many interesting case studies, this new leadership and customer service offering is a dynamite read.
