Must-reading for every manager, entrepreneur, corporate executive, and anyone looking to increase customer satisfaction, boost employee engagement, and significantly enhance the bottom line. In order to build a successful company today, you must create an unbreakable bond of loyalty between your customers and employees. Few have done this better than Enterprise Holdings, owner of the Enterprise, National, and Alamo rental car brands. While Enterprise has long been known for offering excellent customer service, it faced a huge challenge after buying National and Alamo in 2007. Among other things, it had to integrate different cultures, manage a varied workforce, and meet the needs of a much larger and highly divergent customer base. In "Driving Loyalty," youll get an inside look at how Enterprise began operating these three distinct brands in a way that ultimately led to rising profitability and some of the highest customer and employee satisfaction scores in the industry. Youll also discover how other thriving companies--from JetBlue and Starbucks to Costco and even Chobani Yogurt--use similar techniques to outsmart the competition and turn customers and employees into raving fans. "Driving Loyalty" provides a blueprint that businesses of all types can use to deliver exceptional customer service, create a high-performing work environment, build strong brands, instill loyalty, market effectively online and off, and, in turn, power overall performance.
