Your customer service culture is not what your fancy “Customer Guarantee” promises, and it’s not whatever you say it is in your new employee handbook. Your culture is the set of beliefs held by your employees about your company: who and what it is for, what it values, and how they act in response to those beliefs.

The term customer centricity has been around for years, however it is only really in the past five years that organisations have begun to pay it any real attention. Customer centricity is somewhat of a curate’s egg, with some good bits and some bad bits. Not focusing on the customer would seem intuitively wrong.
