Customer service survey results<br />
Steve,<br />
The results of our customer satisfaction survey are back and I’m not sure what to make of them.<br />
As you’ll recall, we made surveys available for all individuals who came into the Embassy and<br />
used our services between March 15 th and May 30 th . We asked five questions (see below), and<br />
then left space for additional comments (I will get you a summary of these comments shortly).<br />
According to the firm who compiled the data, they typically see ratings of between 75% and<br />
80% in the kind of customer service work we do. Based on my experience, anything below 50%<br />
is likely to raise eyebrows in Washington. Let me know what you think.<br />
