Georg Fischer: Adding Quality to People's Lives
Founded in 1802 Georg Fischer is a leading industrial company headquartered in Schaffhausen, Switzerland and listed on the Swiss stock exchange. In recent years, the company has found itself grappling with such issues as globalization, cost reduction, and developing new market segments.  Globalization proved a big challenge because the company's operations span many countries and cultures.  With The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, the company was able to create a common language across all its divisions around the world with a resulting increase in efficiency and productivity.  There is both a written case study and a video case study about Georg Fischer's success.

Guest Satisfaction at Gaylord Opryland
Despite its outstanding facilities, the largest non-casino hotel in the world, Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee, U.S.A., was having trouble satisfying its guests.  Guests complained of long check-in times and an insensitive staff. The hotel had low customer loyalty scores and the lowest guest satisfaction scores of the three hotels in its chain in 2005 and 2006.  In mid-2006, after five months of preparation, the hotel launched The 4 Disciplines of Execution process.  Within months, the hotel’s customer loyalty and guest satisfaction scores hit new highs, making it the number one hotel in the Gaylord chain.  Improvement in employee performance was evident throughout the hotel. Even after 3 years, the 4 Disciplines process was still keeping scores high.
