the ultimate customer experience scott mckain

In The Ultimate Customer Experience, Scott McKain, award-winning speaker and author, reveals the five steps for connecting with customers in today s changing workplace. When was the last time you were a customer and received the Ultimate Customer Experience? Can you even remember? I ve received great service from companies that I know didn t give a damn about my business. You have, too, I ll wager. How did that happen? Here is one possible answer: an individual cared about customers and overcame the obvious deficiencies in their organization s inferior approach and lack of values. There are five fundamental aspects to create the Ultimate Customer Experience for the clients and prospects you deal with every single day. Even during this post-pandemic period as we come to grips with -- and try to learn how -- business has been changed forever, the level at which we connect with customers has never been more important. The five steps to creating an Ultimate Customer Experience are: 1. Don t Make It Right . . . GET It Right! 2. Make a Great Impression 3. Serve with Empathy 4. Connect with Emotion 5. Take Personal Responsibility If your company gave you this book, it means they are committed to improving the experiences you create for customers and colleagues. No organization invests in an activity -- or asks their employees to invest in an activity -- in which they had little interest. Your company believes that you are its most important asset! If you are investing your own resources reading this book, that means you re taking the most important step any of us can ever take -- a step toward personal growth. You wouldn t read this book if all you want to do is tread water and remain the same. You must take personal responsibility for how you engage your customers -- let me show you how.

We spend time in the Low because we re human, not because we re broken.In the Low is a collection of contemplative words and images for seasons of depression. It is a book designed to meet you where you are and sit with you there the way God does: intentionally and without judgment.For many of us, the question isn t whether or not we will enter into depression but how to be there when we do. In those low places, we experience disconnection from others, from a meaningful life, and from God, and it can be difficult to know what to think or pray. This is where art and the honest prayers of others can help us name what we re experiencing so we know we re not alone. In the Low is designed to meet you in the dark and linger there with you as you sit under the weight of depression or despair. Instead of shaming you for how you feel, minimizing your pain, or suggesting quick fixes, Justin McRoberts and Scott Erickson offer you prayers in language and imagery that can help you be honest and vulnerable with yourself and with God. Featuring poetic prayers for deeper relationships, healing from trauma, a hopeful future, and more, In the Low meets you where you are in your journey and calls you deeper into the heart of God--who is not afraid of the dark. In the Low has a permanent spot on my bookshelf. I m grateful for the unhurried connection Scott and Justin offer to us through their words, images, and humanity. --Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room Here is a tender guide, not to answers but to the shared humanity of searching, waiting, and finding meaning in the in-between. --David Gungor, The Brilliance I can offer no higher compliment than this: Someone I love dearly picked up this book during a stretch of pressing darkness, and it helped them. --Shauna Niequist, author of I Guess I Haven t Learned That Yet As someone who has wanted to end it all in her own season of depression, and who accompanies many others in theirs, In the Low is the gift I ve longed for. --Tara Owens, executive director, Anam Cara Ministries, spiritual director, and author of Embracing the Body Depression has a way of turning prayer into a foreign language, leaving us stammering in the dark for words we once spoke with ease. In the Low gives voice to those struck speechless by despair, honoring the sacred truth that faith often speaks through the shadows. --Jonathan Merritt, columnist and author of Learning to Speak God from Scratch In the Low acts as a companion to our seasons of melancholy without rushing us to fix anything. It meets us where we are, as we are. This book resonates deeply within my angsty artist heart, and I m so grateful it exists in the world. --Jess Janz, poet and founder of Dinner with Strangers Scott and Justin created a hand to hold in the valley, and I m grateful to the both of them for how warm it is. --Levi The Poet, spoken word artist As I read the honest, simple prayers in this book and let the clear and powerful illustrations do their work on me, I felt: This will help, not hurt. This will help make things better, not worse. You will treasure this book, I predict, and come back to it again and again. --Brian D. McLaren, author of Faith After Doubt and Life After Doom In the Low is accompaniment for the places inside that deserve to be known, the wordless places that need words, the dark and diffuse places that need form and shape. --Dr. Hillary L. McBride, psychologist, podcast host, author, and mother In the Low is a warm, tender, desperately needed book that doesn t speak about the ache but from inside of it. This is the rare work of spirituality that is not abstract, detached, clichéd, or avoidant but instead gives us the language to speak the unspeakable. --Jonathan Martin, author of How to Survive a Shipwreck and The Road Away from God In the Low is both simple and subversive, inviting us not simply into peace but fuller personhood. --K.J. Ramsey, licensed therapist and author of The Book of Common Courage Encounter this book on its own terms. Encounter this book at the necessarily slow pace of God. And above all, encounter this book and come to know the joy of the God of the Low. --Curt Thompson, MD, author of The Deepest Place and The Soul of Desire In the Low gives us permission to name the ache in our hearts without rushing to fix it. What a relief to discover honest prayers and art that offer a flicker of hope for the dark nights of the soul. --Kayla Craig, author of Every Season Sacred and To Light Their Way and creator of Liturgies for Parents Through this book, Justin and Scott offer us words, images, and their own selves in ways that gently dispel that piece of the darkness and give us a sense of companions who see us, know us, and care. --Donna Hatasaki, senior director of spiritual formation, Young Life Dark seasons aren t optional--they re the price of admission for being human.

Revealing the breadth of F. Scott Fitzgerald s gift for the short story form, this Penguin Classics edition of The Case of Benjamin Button and Six Other Stories spans multiple genres and styles to dazzling effect.Full grown with a long, smoke-coloured beard, requiring the services of a cane and fonder of cigars than warm milk, Benjamin Button is a very curious baby indeed. And, as Benjamin becomes increasingly youthful with the passing years, his family wonders why he persists in the embarrassing folly of living in reverse. In this imaginative fable of ageing and the other stories collected here - including The Cut-Glass Bowl in which an ill-meant gift haunts a family s misfortunes, The Four Fists where a man s life shaped by a series of punches to his face, and the revelry, mobs and anguish of May Day - F. Scott Fitzgerald displays his unmatched gift as a writer of short stories. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button , originally published in 1922, was made into a major motion picture directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton.F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) has acquired a mythical status in American literary history, and his masterwork The Great Gatsby is considered by many to be the great American novel . In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre, dubbed the first American Flapper , and their traumatic marriage and Zelda s gradual descent into insanity became the leading influence on his writing. As well as many short stories, Fitzgerald wrote five novels This Side of Paradise, The Great Gatsby, The Beautiful and the Damned, Tender is the Night and, incomplete at the time of his death, The Last Tycoon. After his death The New York Times said of him that in fact and in the literary sense he created a generation .If you enjoyed The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, you might like Fitzgerald s The Great Gatsby, also available in Penguin Classics.

A beautiful new edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald s classic novel The Great Gatsby to coincide with the release of Baz Luhrmann s film. There was music from my neighbour s house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars. Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby s mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby s origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that he killed a man . A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for.As writer Nick Carraway is drawn into this decadent orbit, Gatsby s destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing and tragic consequences. Not only a page turner and heartbreaker, it s one of the most quintessentially American novels ever written TimeF. Scott Fitzgerald was born in St Paul, Minnesota in 1896. He studied at Princeton University before joining the army in 1917. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre. Their traumatic relationship and subsequent breakdowns became a major influence on his writing.

⠜This work is a profound and fundamental contribution to the issues addressed.⠝⠔Sociology  ⠜Vital to an understanding of peasant politics.⠝⠔Library Journal  James C. Scott places the critical problem of the peasant household⠔subsistence⠔at the center of this study. The fear of food shortages, he argues persuasively, explains many otherwise puzzling technical, social, and moral arrangements in peasant society, such as resistance to innovation, the desire to own land even at some cost in terms of income, relationships with other people, and relationships with institutions, including the state.  Once the centrality of the subsistence problem is recognized, its effects on notions of economic and political justice can also be seen. Scott draws from the history of agrarian society in lower Burma and Vietnam to show how the transformations of the colonial era systematically violated the peasants⠙ ⠜moral economy⠝ and created a situation of potential rebellion and revolution.  Demonstrating keen insights into the behavior of people in other cultures and a rare ability to generalize soundly from case studies, Scott offers a different perspective on peasant behavior that will be of interest particularly to political scientists, anthropologists, sociologists, and Southeast Asianists.

Edward Wilson (1872-1912) accompanied Robert Falcon Scott on both his celebrated Antarctic voyages: the Discovery Expedition of 1901-1904 and the Terra Nova Expedition of 1910-1913.Wilson served as Junior Surgeon and Zoologist on Discovery and, on this expedition, with Scott and Ernest Shackleton he set a new Furthest South on 30 December 1902.

It was early in a fine summer s day, near the end of the eighteenth century, when a young man, of genteel appearance, having occasion to go towards the north-east of Scotland, provided himself with a ticket in one of those public carriages which travel between Edinburgh and the Queensferry... So begins Scott s personal favourite among his novels, in characteristically wry and urbane style, as a mysterious young man calling himself Lovel travels idly but fatefully toward the Scottish seaside town of Fairport. Here he is befriended by the antiquary Jonathan Oldbuck, who has taken refuge from his own personal disappointments in the obsessive study of miscellaneous history. Their slow unravelling of Lovel s true identity will unearth and redeem the secrets and lies which have devastated the guilt-haunted Earl of Glenallan, and will reinstate the tottering fortunes of Sir Arthur Wardour and his daughter Isabella.First published in 1816 in the aftermath of Waterloo, The Antiquary deals with the problem of how to understand the past so as to enable the future. Set in the tense times of the wars with revolutionary France, it displays Scott s matchless skill at painting the social panorama and in creating vivid characters, from the earthy beggar Edie Ochiltree to the loqacious and shrewdly humorous Antiquary himself.The text is based on Scott s own final, authorized version, the Magnum Opus edition of 1829.

For as long as we ve studied the mind, we ve believed that information flowing from our senses determines what our mind perceives. But as our understanding has advanced in the last few decades, a hugely powerful new view has flipped this assumption on its head. The brain is not a passive receiver, but an ever-active predictor.At the forefront of this cognitive revolution is widely acclaimed philosopher and cognitive scientist Andy Clark, who has synthesized his ground-breaking work on the predictive brain to explore its fascinating mechanics and implications. Among the most stunning of these is the realization that experience itself, because it is guided by prior expectation, is a kind of controlled hallucination. We don t passively take in the world around us; instead our mind is constantly making and refining predictions about what we expect to see.This even applies to our bodies, as the way we experience pain and other states is shaped by our expectations, and this has broader implications for the understanding and treatment of conditions from PTSD to schizophrenia to medically unexplained symptoms. From the most mundane experiences to the most sublime, it is our predictions that sculpt our experience. A landmark study of cognitive science, The Experience Machine lays out the extraordinary explanatory power of the predictive brain for our lives, mental health and society.

â ˜A darkly entertaining tale about American espionage, set in an era when Washingtonâ ™s fear and skepticism about the agency resembles our climate today.â ™ New York Times At the end of World War II, the United States dominated the world militarily, economically, and in moral standing â “ seen as the victor over tyranny and a champion of freedom. But it was clear â “ to some â “ that the Soviet Union was already executing a plan to expand and foment revolution around the world. The American governmentâ ™s strategy in response relied on the secret efforts of a newly-formed CIA. The Quiet Americans chronicles the exploits of four spies â “ Michael Burke, a charming former football star fallen on hard times, Frank Wisner, the scion of a wealthy Southern family, Peter Sichel, a sophisticated German Jew who escaped the Nazis, and Edward Lansdale, a brilliant ad executive. The four ran covert operations across the globe, trying to outwit the ruthless KGB in Berlin, parachuting commandos into Eastern Europe, plotting coups, and directing wars against Communist insurgents in Asia. But time and again their efforts went awry, thwarted by a combination of stupidity and ideological rigidity at the highest levels of the government â “ and more profoundly, the decision to abandon American ideals. By the mid-1950s, the Soviet Union had a stranglehold on Eastern Europe, the US had begun its disastrous intervention in Vietnam, and America, the beacon of democracy, was overthrowing democratically elected governments and earning the hatred of much of the world. All of this culminated in an act of betrayal and cowardice that would lock the Cold War into place for decades to come. Anderson brings to the telling of this story all the narrative brio, deep research, sceptical eye, and lively prose that made Lawrence in Arabia a major international bestseller. The intertwined lives of these men began in a common purpose of defending freedom, but the ravages of the Cold War led them to different fates. Two would quit the CIA in despair, stricken by the moral compromises they had to make; one became the archetype of the duplicitous and destructive American spy; and one would be so heartbroken he would take his own life. Scott Andersonâ ™s The Quiet Americans is the story of these four men. It is also the story of how the United States, at the very pinnacle of its power, managed to permanently damage its moral standing in the world.

Drawn from more than two decades of pathbreaking writing, the iconic and bestselling David Graeber s most important essays and interviews. David Graeber has always been an inspiration to me. Reading him fills me with both hope and joy...The tools he has shared to help all of us deconstruct the current reality we inhabit are invaluable. The more people that we can reach the more chance of a reimagined world is possible - Clive Lewis MP ‘The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently,’ wrote David Graeber. This new collection brings together the renowned anthropologist, author and activist’s most visionary essays, showing him imagining a new understanding of the past – and a future based on humans fundamental freedom.Drawn from more than two decades of pathbreaking writing, and ranging across the biggest issues of our time – inequality, technology, the identity of ‘the West,’ democracy, art, power, anger, mutual aid and protest – Graeber’s essays challenge the old assumptions about political life. Despite converging political, economic, and ecological crises, our politics is still dominated by either ‘business as usual’ or nostalgia for a mythical past.
