How to Inspire Your Employees to Greater Performance

Social Corporate Responsibility

Corporations are formed from the sweat of their laborers and the ingenuity of their skilled workers. They are a big part of what makes American great. As embedded members of our society they also have responsibilities over it.

In the same way that all citizens should consider effort to make the country better​ so do successful companies. With the growing gap between rich and poor this imperative is becoming even more important.

Social corporate responsibility is a pact with the community that encourages greater growth in society through educational and community based activities.

The opportunities are wide open to just about anything a company can ponder. College grants, neighbor clean up, donation of books, training programs, pollution clean up, housing or just about anything that comes to mind that furthers a purpose of significance.

The type of social responsibility projects should be based in the values and industry that define the organization. For example, paper mills could donate art paper and supplies​ to school children while cell phone companies could support emergency phones for single parents.

OVERVIEW

The Clute Institute, established in 1985, hosts the International Conference on Education (ICE) to promote excellence in academic research.

Please join us for the 2017 International Conference on Education New York. The aim of the conference is to provide an opportunity for researchers to present their ideas, proposals, or completed research in all areas of education to an international audience. Since 30 to 50 different countries are typically represented, presenting at this conference is a great way to get feedback from researchers with a different perspective. An extensive list of acceptable topics is available on our website. Double blind peer reviews are available upon request.

CONFERENCE VENUE

We will be returning to the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel located just a few blocks from Times Square. In addition to the International Conference on Education, we are also hosting an International Academic Conference on Business which will be held concurrently; one registration covering both.

Customer Loyalty by Honesty

Honesty goes a long way with customers even though we feel sometimes that admitting our mistakes makes the customer think less of our business. Customers are looking for trustworthiness and relationships with the businesses they frequent; honesty sows the connection.

Let me give you an example where a mistake was recovered for greater loyalty. I have a 1993 old Isuzu Trooper and in small towns like Escanaba, Michigan you can't always get what you want due to its isolated location in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

I took a referral and dropped my truck off. They couldn't find an axle and I had to search it out for them. Annoying!!! They also quoted me a ludicrous amount for the cost of repairs. I explained that it shouldn't take 4 hours to change an axle and tighten a wheel bearing.

In the back of my head I kept thinking I made a costly mistake bringing it to them. It wasn't a mom and pop shop but one of the larger mechanic businesses in the town. I thought they could be trusted.

To my surprise when I called to check on the vehicle, it was already finished and the $750 quote went down to $256 final price. They recovered with their honesty. They actually charged the time it took them versus what they could soak me for.

The lesson learned here is that honesty, even after mistakes, can lead to loyalty. It leaves a positive impression of the business that often leads to future purchases. While your business might lose a few dollars today it does offer a lifetime customer strategy that earns more in the big picture.

Poor Customer Service Can Put You into Congress Crosshairs

We have all learned about the importance of customer service. However, when customer service drops to international outrage it may result in increased scrutiny and discussion of regulation by lawmakers. You may want to read about United's CEO being on the stand in front of the House Transportation Committee on Tuesday.
