His “Ten Commandants” provide   the essential guidelines, including:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Underpromise, overdeliver: Never disappoint your customers by charging them more than they planned. Always beat your estimate or throw in an extra service free of charge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • No complaints? Something’s wrong: If you never ask your customers what else they want, how are you going to give it to them?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Measure everything: Telling your employees to do their best won’t work if you don’t know how they can improve.“The book of the year . . .
