Happy Customers , But

It's almost 11:49PM (PST) , was reading something about Happy Customers , so thought of blogging that.

As we all know happy customer are really critical for business after the 2008 meltdown.Satisifying a customer is crucial to a business , and every analysis indicate that their is a link between happy customer and higher profit.But How about the Happy Employess, satisifying employees is worthwhile if you want Happy customer.But Happy employee and Happy customer has not a easy thing to do .

One good thought is give reason to your employee to maintain Happy customer and tell them why happy customer are good for them and business as well as tell them the ways to please the customers, and then acknowledge your employee efforts as well as reward them for same.

Well that's for now.

Critical Thinking in today Market

While eating lunch on my desk, I thought why to waste time, and start surfing net and found some good article about how to manage work after the 2008 meltdown. (Just a word – it is not a good idea to eat lunch as well as reading something over the net).

Most of the author of the article that I have read authors said with the meltdown of 2008, we really need good leaders who not only for foresee the things, but also who think critically.

A leader lead rest of the team, but with the meltdown of 2008, shall I say our leaders not able to foresee the things and not able to critically analyzed the situations.

One author said that by thinking critically it means

1. When a proposition is give to a person, he should look and find “What” and “Why” for it.
2. He/She should be open and look at a situation from different perspective.
3. He/She should be quick in spotting the potential.
4. And last but not the least, today we are living in a constantly changing environment, a critically thinker should be capable to work in changing environment, he/she should be comfortable in environment where change is part of the process.

Well that’s for now( let mefinish my sanwitch)

Best Performing CEOs

Recently I was going through the HBR and found a lovely article on "Best Performing CEOs in the World” and amazed to see how these guys changes their organizations.This blog is just little abstract .Article was written by Morten Hansen. First 5 position occupied by

1. Steve jobs
2. Yun Jong-Yong
3. Alexey B . Miller
4. John T. Chamber
5. Mukesh D. Ambani

Top 3 are not even M.BA, and First 2 are leading the IT companies. In top 5 three are leading IT companies and 2 are running the show for Energy companies. As per the analysis by the author, CEO with the M.B.A degree performed better than the CEO with no M.B.A degree (point that he want to make here is that it is wrong to say that business schools had fostered destructive greedy behavior)

Author has not included

1. Jack Welch
2. Warren Buffet
3. Larry Ellision
4. Bill Gates
   

Because they want to include the people who has pick the CEO job not before 1995 and not after 2007. As per the article, author and his team analyzed the data of the companies and calculated the daily company returns for the entire length of each CEO tenure, and also calculated the daily returns for the 3 years following a CEO tenure (if applicable). Parameter they use to judge the CEO ranking are -
Country - adjusted company returns
Industry - adjusted company returns
Market capitalization change.
Other Interesting fact about the topics is Insider Vs Outside, Team of analyst who involve in the research found different answer for outsider Vs insider, some says that if a CEO is tapped from the outside he is more open and cable to install changes, but other says that outside are very expensive and for long term growth planning industry/firm specific example are very critical. Symantec CEO John Thompson was considered, as most successful Outsider CEO, where as Samsung and Reliance Industries CEO Yun Jong-Yong and Anil D Ambani was best Inside CEO.

I really like the author work.
