The customer-focused quality leader

Article Abstract:

Customer-focused quality is above all the task of a company's leadership. A Forum Corp study shows a customer-focused quality srategy is adopted when a leader has a strong commitment to it as a philosophy for operations or as a solution to losses stemming from competition or customer dissatisfaction. For a company to imbibe this philosophy, leaders' lives need to express this belief in quality and conveying this commitment to the organization must be a priority. Their policies must reflect devotion to their clientele, cultivate team spirit among employees and keep the company focused on long-term aims.
