My theory is and literature backs this up, that employee satisfaction is directly linked to customer satisfaction.

By listening to the employees concerns-even the gripes and actually doing something about it.  You can have 50 meetings, but at the end of the day you don't show how management is committed to employees, those whose issues weren't addressed become the 'dissenters'.  It is tough, but do-able as long as there is FULL commitment from higher.

yes, but that's only true with some companies and, usually, it's the customer's fault that they get bad credit and stuff.

It is a sound theory, but you need to fill some gaps.  \n\nThere is no direct causal relationship between R&D and consumer confidence.  But you can still make a connection by assuming that when government encourages or funds R&D, its results (say, gene therapy) gives public a sense of hope and progress, which in turn increases consumer confidence and improves economy. \n\nYour second statement is a generally true proposition.  Voters tend to re-elect the same president if the economy was good.  However, the most recent presidential election disproves that theory.  Economy is not the only or determining factors in presidential elections, but it’s an important one.

A - True\n\nI totally agree with the article! This is a major issue in the Hospitality Industry! Very difficult to retain staff for the establishment. Most of the time is due to poor management.\n\nThe staff, don't normally understand their importance in the big picture. Therefore they don't feel that the job or the responsibility they hold, no matter how irrelevant it may seems to them can and most of the time may make the biggest difference! If the staff don't feel they are just as special as their guests i.e. poor staff satisfaction, the result will be poor guest satisfaction!\n\nTherefore, proper training at all levels are imperative! Through training, the staff may shown the big picture, what the establishment is trying to achieve and there they fits in! Explaining and show them that without the staff, the establishment will not be able to function properly.\n\nIt is good to let the staff know the significance of their task. Everyone in the establishment is working as a TEAM and this team can only be profitable if everyone works together.\n\nSo, back to the problem. Management need to find and train new talents that is able to deliver this task, because it is so true that poor staff retention is often the result of poor management.\n\nI hope this helps you in some way..

people are smarter on the whole, and will have bigger career options and if are treated with appreciation at work, ususally they will feel a sense of pride and committment to that company.  When a community has more poeple with higher education, there is usually a decrease in crime and drug abuse, which in turn cuts down abortion and STDs

probably, in most multi-level marketing companies about 5% of the people actually support the company. The rest don't usually make enough to be significant and don't last very long.

I totally agree, and there are many ways to help others. Hiring a new employee is one way. Good people give it back the other way.

Expectancy theory of motivation by Victor Vroom in the 1960's. It states that: motivation = expectancy x instrumentality x valence. \nWhere Expectancy the employee's perception that there efforts will result in performance. Ex: increased sales. \nInstrumentality is the employees perception that performance will result in positive or negative outcomes. Valence is the value that the employee places on the outcomes.
