 “Thank goodness 2008 is over” has been the recurring theme in many of the messages I have received from friends and colleagues over the last few weeks.

Politics in the USA will never be the same again after Barack Obama’s brilliant campaign.  Using the “Yes we can!” mantra, he managed to persuade his electorate that change is needed in the USA, and that change is possible.  Can it really be doubted that – not just in the USA, but also across the [...]]]></description>

Best practice requires that organisations do have a procedure for dealing appropriately with consumer complaints.  According to the British Standards Institution, one of the leading suppliers of management systems, codes of conduct should form part of an effective approach to complaints management.
