The language you use needs to match what you do – the brand language needs to be alive inside the
business as much as outside. Employees need knowledge, good processes and skills with the right
attitude that gives them an emotional connection to the customer.

Why do businesses focus on themselves rather than the customer? Are they inwardly focused with a
short term focus on profit because they are led by shareholder above customer interest. Both profit
and shareholder value are key as outcomes of great customer centric strategies. A great customer
experience can only be given by someone who wants to give it. Employees who are passionate about
what they do and choose to give the best then deliver that great experience.
