Home Depot Still Has A Spark Of Customer Centricity
I’m in the process of publishing a report called “The Customer Experience Journey” which describes 5 levels of maturity as companies head towards Experience-Based Differentiation. As companies evolve past the first couple of stages, they need to develop “Customer-Centric DNA,” which I’ve defined as:

A strong, shared set of beliefs that guides how customers are treated 

So I’m always looking for tangible examples of this type of culture. Well, I found an example in a comment to one of my posts called Can Frank Blake Revive Home Depot? I know that people don’t always read the comments, so I decided to post an excerpt of it here:

I’ve been an Employee for 8years and yes the Nardelli era was hard, not only for the customers but also the employees who’s heart pumps orange blood. I stuck it out with the company because I know the creation of this company wasnt built on the values Bob Nardelli tried to push on all of us…. Now that we have Frank, I can feel the flame spark again… it may never be a strong flame like it once was but I still have faith that it will one day light again. For all of you frustrated customers I would like to tell you that I am personally sorry, even I lost the customer service focus that bernie and arthur built this company around… but I can honestly say I got it back, and I want to rub it off on every employee I come in contact with…. Frank understands that in order to do this we have to teach train and develop each other so that we can better serve you… it will take some time to build that back, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

The bottom line: If most of Home Depot’s employees still feel this way, then I’m betting on the company!
