}}Usually taking the form of a survey question along the lines “on a scale of 1-10, [[how likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?]]” the [[net promoter score]] is a device, recognised by [[those who know]], to measure meaningful client loyalty, the likelihood of client referrals, recommendations, and the potential for repeat business. The aggregate data spinning off an “NPS” question is considered, by [[those who know]], as a good [[proxy]] for forecasting business grown and the health of one’s brand. | }}Usually taking the form of a survey question along the lines “on a scale of 1-10, [[how likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?]]” the [[net promoter score]] is a device, recognised by [[those who know]], to measure meaningful client loyalty, the likelihood of client referrals, recommendations, and the potential for repeat business.

Net promoter methodology is leeching away from the brand value of chocolate bars and is seeping into the management methodology of international financial institutions — weird — and, weirder still, to the performance measurement of their internal functions. Now we of the western liberal elite are surely messed-up, readers, but not so divorced from reality that any of us would honestly recommend to our loved ones our employer’s IT help or HR self-service portal. Or our [[asset manager]], [[insurance company]], debt collection agency, [[broker-dealer]] or any of the other modernists behemoths that perpetrate their its [[worst reasonable efforts]] on a systematic basis. | Net promoter methodology is leeching away from the brand value of chocolate bars and is seeping into the management methodology of international financial institutions — weird — and, weirder still, to the performance measurement of their internal functions.
