How do you set your business up for consistent, continuous growth? It’s the million dollar question that businesses face every day. To answer it, we believe that there are three recurring trends that are shaping the future of business: First, businesses across all industries are facing pressure to become digital businesses.

Last December, I visited three bicycle shops to search for a new bike. I wanted a hybrid bike that was easy to maintain and fun to ride. The employee at the first shop immediately focused what they had in stock, which wasn't much. He didn't ask any questions and barely answered mine. The employee at the second bike shop answered my questions, but didn't go deeper to truly understand my needs.

"You're p **g me off!" The one-sentence email came from the company president. He was upset that the phones had been ringing all day, and blamed me for what was happening. Our phone lines rang throughout the office whenever a customer was holding for more than a minute. Everyone, including the president, was expected to drop what they were doing and answer the phone.

New hire training is under pressure. Executives want to shorten it. Training costs time and money. The faster new employees can get to work, the better. New employees want it to be longer. They complain about not getting enough support. Some quickly leave. I asked people on LinkedIn how long they thought new hire training should last, adding the caveat that I knew it was a trick question.

Never being late … that’s not realistic. It’s going to happen. It’s not a question of if. It’s when. . But you might say, “It’s not my fault!” And maybe it’s not. For example, you may be driving to a lunch meeting, and a car accident shuts down the highway making you. And it’s not just about arriving late to a commitment. It could be a delay in shipping a product.

Many customer service employees automatically offer free or discounted food, products, or services when something goes wrong. Didn't like your meal? Here' a free dessert. Not happy with your car wash? Next one's on us. Shipment take too long to arrive? Get 20 percent off your next order. As counterintuitive as it might seem, freebies and discounts can make service recovery worse, not better.
