Some feedback stops you in your tracks.
This week we received a message from a customer that really made me pause:
"Kesson tells it like it is – then tells you that it's in your gift to improve matters – and then, with great optimism, explains exactly how to do it. They are always correct in their assessment (in my experience), and I always leave them with huge optimism. Aside from this – everyone is always charming!"
We collect feedback constantly at Kesson. It helps us understand our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats as a business. It helps us recognise the brilliant people in our team and celebrate the impact they make on the lives of our customers every day.
But occasionally you receive feedback that captures exactly how you hope people feel when they work with you.
Honest. Clear. Empowered. Optimistic about what’s possible.
Reading this made me incredibly proud of the team and the culture we’ve worked hard to build.
It also made me reflect on something important in business: the power of working with the right customers.
When values align, everyone wins. Conversations are more open. Progress is faster. Outcomes are better. And the whole experience becomes more positive for everyone involved.
So to Juliet Allison who shared this – thank you. You probably don’t realise just how much your words meant to our team.
And to the Kesson team – thank you for continuing to show people that improvement is possible.
That’s what helping people Move Better, Live Better is really all about.
