least two aspects of each design that set it
apart from other hotels and demonstrate quality.

managing a frontline employee requires specific
activities. Identify a minimum of three specific
activities an organization can implement to

Customer Complaints   Handling Customer
Complaints. Although customer complaints are
commonly dreaded, the feedback from the customer
can actually give the services organization an
opportunity to improve its quality of services
and build customer loyalty. The manner in which a
complaint is handled, however, will determine
whether or not such a positive outcome is
achieved. Discuss what customers want once a
complaint has been made, and the steps the
services organization can take to ensure a
positive outcome. Illustrate your comments with a
specific example of a complaint that you have
made or received (or seen made or received) and
how it was handled.
