Client focus is all about achieving excellence in customer satisfaction. It is putting clients needs first and foremost throughout an organization. Keeping the client top of mind when developing processes, or creating products and services.

This kind of focus on the customer can be a strong contributor to business success because it allows the company to only focus on the priorities and eliminate any inefficiencies or unproductive work or roles that do not serve the customer.

Understanding the needs, interests, and wishes of your client is the crucial challenge and the best method to understand that is to get to the root cause, and to define, the customer problem and then strive to solve that problem for them, thereby anticipating and meeting their needs.

When considering your role, tasks, and forward-thinking strategy, put clients at the center of all decisions. If what you are doing does not serve the customer, question if it is necessary to do it in the first place, and if so how you can maximize efficiencies while doing it. Define the customer need for your product or service, and the solution around it. Remember your first customers are your employees, so if you work with an internal client then this also applies.
