Comment on Timico Technology Group acquires Redwood Telecommunications < good stuff by Tacitus

Tacitus — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:50:23 +0000

Quote: “The customer is king. No customers = no business”.

Reminds me of the great writer on management, Peter Drucker, who always stated that the primary aim of a business was to obtain customers. Such a view is considered old-fashioned in the new age of profit maximisation and pursuit of ‘shareholder value’. Ask any class of first year business undergrads and they’ll tell you that the primary aim of a business is the pursuit of profit.

Wrong – IMHO The primary aim of a business should be to satisfy customers. Profit is the reward for a job well done.

Hereby ends the armchair philosophy……

Comment on Always have a Plan B – Mobile Access Management by Big Evil

You have to like the overenthusiastic announcements by rail staff –
Once while on the overcrowded London underground – The announcement came over the speakers “Stand clear of the doors please” This was followed with 10 seconds of silence and the same announcement repeated. A further 10 seconds and with more gusto again repeated.
Again – silence.
A deep sigh came over the speakers and in a loud voice “Would the fat man with red suitcase get his case out of the way of the doors so the train can depart!”.
The poor man inched his case into the carriage as far as it would go and we were on our way home.

BE.
