The Riverside Group Receive Congratulations from Gordon Brown
Congratulations to The Riverside Group, a client of Mary Gober International’s, who have recently achieved the Customer Service Excellence Standard. 
Prime Minister Gordon Brown is amongst those to congratulate The Riverside Group, with a personal letter from his office.
The Government wants public services for all that are efficient, effective, excellent, equitable and empowering – with the citizen always and everywhere at the heart of public service provision. With this in mind Customer Service Excellence was developed to offer public services a practical tool for driving customer-focused change within their organisation.
The foundation of this tool is the Customer Service Excellence standard which tests in great depth those areas that research has indicated are a priority for customers, with particular focus on delivery, timeliness, information, professionalism and staff attitude. There is also emphasis placed on developing customer insight, understanding the user’s experience and robust measurement of service satisfaction.
The Customer Service Excellence standard aims to make a tangible difference to public service users by encouraging provider organisations to focus on their individual needs and preferences.
