For the first time, this groundbreaking guide unlocks the secrets used by Amazon, Virgin, Apple, Starbucks and salesforce.com. It creates a guide for success based on 3 years of scientific study drawing insights from more than 100 businesses to identify seven key factors. When implemented together these factors have been proven to drive superior business performance. Customer Culture is as fundamental to business performance as breathing is to living. It is the life force of a business.
Creating a customer-centric company takes more than making an investment in the customer service department and systems. It’s about building a culture in which the customer is at the heart of all decisions made within every function and unit. What’s best for the customer is best for the business. Make that a part of the DNA of your organization, and you will lead your company to unprecedented success.

Linden and Chris provide a unique framework and roadmap to build this culture within large and small organizations,” Arthur Rubinfeld, chief creative officer and president, Global Innovation and Evolution Fresh Retail, Starbucks.
