Leaders start with the customer and work backwards. They work vigorously to earn and keep customer trust. Although leaders pay attention to competitors, they obsess over customers.
Customer obsession means understanding customer needs deeply, anticipating their future needs, and building solutions that truly serve them. It's about making decisions that benefit customers even when it might be inconvenient or costly in the short term.
