In the service industry, customer satisfaction “can be defined by comparing perceptions of service received with expectations of service desired” (Bordoloi, p. 142). When your customer's “expectations are exceeded, service is perceived to be of exceptional quality” (Bordoloi, p. 142). When your customers “expectations are not met; however, service quality is deemed unacceptable” (Bordoloi, p. 142). Therefore, “when expectations are confirmed by perceived service, quality is satisfactory” (Bordoloi, p. 142). Please review Figure 6.1, “Perceived Service Quality,” on p. 142, which graphically represents these expectations, including word of mouth, personal needs, and past experience. As we consider that “quality begins with the design of the service delivery system,” explain what this will look…arrow_forward.

- Mr. Roger Munson, the owner-manager of a construction company, is skeptical about investing in training for his 50 construction employees. He believes the investment might be wasted if the newly skilled employees are quickly poached by other companies, and he doubts the training will yield significant productivity improvements. Nevertheless, a performance management consultant argues that enhancing employee skills will boost productivity and positively impact the company’s bottom line. Reluctantly, Mr. Munson has agreed to allow the consultant to conduct a study involving the training of all 50 employees. Providing the training services pro bono, with payment contingent upon demonstrating, through empirical evidence, that the training results in significant productivity gains within a three-month period following the training. Table 4.1 presents an excerpt of the evaluation comparing each employee’s productivity before and after the training.

These differences complicate the harmonisation of standards, tariffs, and customs procedures (Olufemi et al., 2024). In addition, many African countries struggle with underdeveloped transport networks and logistics facilities, impacting supply chain efficiency and reliability (Rosenberg & Allen, 2023).

As an HR specialist, you are keen to empirically determine whether the choice of electives has a lasting impact on the monetary compensation of MBA graduates.
