About this listen
Don R. Crawley's book, The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service, offers a new and refreshing approach to IT customer service. Instead of prescribing rigid scripts and protocols, The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service shows the listener how to live a more compassionate and empathetic life as a pathway to delivering exceptional customer service. Ignoring the dictates of most customer service books, The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service focuses instead on the timeless principles of pride in your work combined with compassion and empathy for our customers and colleagues, excellent listening skills, and an ability to treat all people with dignity and respect. It gives the listener credit for being able to think for her or himself without being burdened by phony sounding scripts or rigid protocols.
In The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service, the listener learns how to become an intrinsically more caring person, better equipped to understand the frustrations of an end user or customer struggling with a computer or software problem.
In The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service, you'll learn:
- The importance of technical competence and how to achieve it
- How compassionate people know the right words to say in tough situations
- The power of empathy to defuse emotionally charged situations
- The top 10 ways to be a better listener
- The critical difference between feeling respect and showing respect and dignity
The 5 Principles of IT Customer Service manifests the author's firmly rooted belief in the basic goodness of all people and the ability of all people to grow, adapt, and achieve excellence in every aspect of their lives.

Do you have a grip on your business, or does your business have a grip on you? All entrepreneurs and business leaders face similar frustrations: personnel conflict, profit woes, and inadequate growth. Decisions never seem to get made, or once made, fail to be properly implemented. But there is a solution. It’s not complicated or theoretical.

Story
Most companies treat service as a low-priority business operation, keeping it out of the spotlight until a customer complains. Then service gets to make a brief appearance - for as long as it takes to calm the customer down and fix whatever foul-up jeopardized the relationship. In Uncommon Service, Frances Frei and Anne Morriss show how, in a volatile economy where the old rules of strategic advantage no longer hold true, service must become a competitive weapon, not a damage-control function. That means weaving service tightly into every core decision your company makes.

They actually have vastly different styles and backgrounds. Yet despite their differences, great managers share one common trait: They don’t hesitate to break virtually every rule held sacred by conventional wisdom. They don’t believe that, with enough training, a person can achieve anything he sets his mind to. They don’t try to help people overcome their weaknesses. And, yes, they even play favorites. In this longtime management bestseller, Gallup presents the remarkable findings of its massive in-depth study of great managers.
