Achieving User Satisfaction: Service Support Depends on a Service-Based Ethos
by Lisa Erickson-Harris, Research Director
Ethos: the guiding beliefs of a person, group or institution. When translated for technology, an ethos is the culture under which an organization operates to support technology in order to best serve the organization. While tools, budgets, and processes are all important to our effectiveness on the support desk or in any aspect of IT, we frequently lose sight of the people involved.
Recently, EMA conducted a study called The Aging Help Desk: Migrating to a Modern Service Desk, which examined the demands of today’s service desk environment. Even in today’s challenging economic times, the top priority for participants was “improving customer satisfaction.” Eighty-two percent of those responding to the EMA survey indicated this was an important priority. Undoubtedly, Both IT and the entire organization benefit from a culture where service is put front and center.
