INTRODUCTION
Purpose
This training pack is designed to show people the critical importance of attention to detail in their everyday work. Excellent performance has always depended on getting the little things right first time. In today's organisations this is everybody's responsibility, no matter who they are, what they do or how long they have been around. In a fast moving worldwe can no longer rely on the boss or bureaucratic systems to check our work. We must do that for ourselves every day, in everything we do, large or small. The purpose of The kingdom was lost is to help people recognise their responsibility for the quality of their work and show them how to act upon it. It will make them think twice before saying: "I can't be bothered" "No-one will notice if Idon't do that" "It's only a minor detail'" "Just this once won't matter'" "It's not my job to do that".
Audience
Because attention to detail is everybody's responsibility the pack can be used at all levels in any organisation, whether in the public or private sector. As an organisation's performance is the result of cooperative effort between individuals and teams, there are advantages in usingthe pack with groups containing a cross section of seniority and function. Discussion of the contribution which different individuals and functions make will prevent anyone thinking that this is nothing to do with them, perhaps because they are too junior or never come in contact with customers.
