I don’t gossip or finger-point. I don’t assign blame or give putdowns. I don’t accuse or assume faults. No, I don’t. But I do talk about people behind their back.

The gap between customer service in public and private sectors is vast. The top-performing private sector in the US boasts a customer satisfaction score of 8.3 out of 10. In US government, this score languishes at 4.5. The reasons for this gap are complicated and numerous.
