Welcome to the November 2005 edition of  “Leadership:  It’s All About Trust.”

 An on-line newsletter from Ellen Castro that addresses

leadership in today’s ever changing world.

 

 

Today’s Leaders

 

 

Today’s leaders are thankful for their customers, both internal and external.  Without their customers, their companies or organizations would not exist.

 

Thus, today’s leaders know …

 

·                    It is all about the customer.

·                    It is all about the customer experience.

·                    And while their products and/or services are expected to be the best, there is more.  The MORE is the positive emotional connections built on trust and caring.

 

Today’s leaders understand …

 

·                    People buy from people.

·                    People buy from people they trust and respect.

·                    People CHOOSE to buy from people who care about them and have THEIR best interests at heart.

 

Today’s leaders make a difference in the lives of their customers by demonstrating trustworthiness and caring in every single moment, in every single way.

 

The choice is ALWAYS yours.  Choose wisely.

Feel free to share this with a colleague or friend.  Your comments and thoughts are always appreciated … I am always learning.  Until next time, choose wisely.
