Base: British Captains of Industry scoring 0 to 8 for ‘Acting on feedback from your customers’ (79) Interviewed Sept – Dec 2015
“Engaging more with customers, understanding their concerns and their stress when they are buying new products.”“You can get feedback but you have to be engaged with the customer to get the full value out of it, you need to do proper surveys, proper engagement. A happy letter gives a warm glow but it doesn't do much, you need full engagement.”“Quite often the customer only really gets engaged right at the end of a project, so it is engaging with them all the way through it.”
“The organisation could listen more in order to hear the feedback accurately in the first instance. It is really about making sure that we do talk to our clients and their customers, we hear what they say but we don't always fully understand what they say, so we take action that doesn't completely address the issue sometimes.”“We need to listen and be much more open to looking at things in a different way rather than looking at things in a polarised way, around our policies. We need to look at the world not just through our eyes but through the eyes of our customers.”“Listening more. We operate in a complex environment so feedback is not black or white, because of the nature of what we do, but we need to listen not try and engineer a reason, be open-minded.”
“Feeding back change as a result of that feedback … We can test the action plans, review in terms of feedback, and then re-test in terms of have we made it better, the whole cycle. We have to keep doing that.”“It's capturing that feedback and using that feedback to change our services and products.”“We need to get organised to look at how the customers are so we can understand them and act better on feedback. If you have feedback and you don't understand them it is very difficult to act on their feedback. So we are now trying to understand the feedback better.”
“Anticipate, work out what customers want and how they are going to feedback.”“Our issue is actively seeking it and encouraging it. Where we get it we do act, but it is more reactive than proactive.”“Perhaps engage with clients a bit earlier, maybe understand a client's problems rather than just addressing the question.”“Probably searching for it earlier, basically heading off a lot of issues that might arise.”
