Design/methodology/approach
This paper is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
Is the customer always right? This somewhat hackneyed phrase is still trotted out by many managers when seeking to underline the importance of customer service. Of course, all employees should aim to give the best service they are able to within the parameters of their role, but sometimes, the customer may not be all they seem to be, and employee behavior has to be understood more widely. After all, we all have seen customer behavior that lacks any kind of respect for retail employees. We may even have been guilty of this ourselves.
Practical implications
This paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
Originality/value
The paper saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent, information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
