Course Description
The basis for IT service provider organizations to deliver better value to their business customers begins with creating a “service culture.” Service culture is much more pervasive than a simple “customer service” perspective; it pervades what we do, how we do it, why we do it, and provides the fundamental basis for how to establish more efficient and more effective IT organizations.
