Features: With the acceleration of global economic integration and the shift from a seller's market to a buyer's market worldwide, corporate competition has entered a new phase where customer demand takes the lead, and customer satisfaction is pursued. In this context, an increasing number of enterprises are beginning to adjust their business strategies, focusing their efforts around "making customers satisfied." Practice has shown that eliminating customer complaints is an effective way to enhance customer satisfaction and cultivate customer loyalty. However, many businesses either avoid customer dissatisfaction, criticism, and complaints at all costs or treat them as unavoidable "flaws" in operations, reluctantly dedicating time, effort, and money to address customer complaints. The cultivation of Master of Business Administration (MBA) programs in China has been going on for over a decade. From the first batch of MBA admissions in 1991, with fewer than 100 students enrolled at several domestic universities, to the current situation where more than 60 higher education institutions across the country offer MBA programs, this reflects the adaptation of China's higher education in management to the practical needs of talent in the market economy and the development of economic globalization. It also mirrors the backdrop of significant transformation and transitional gaps in China's economy, society, and education. Currently, in addition to the formal academic MBA programs in universities, there are also business management education programs in society that focus primarily on skill training. The rapid rise of MBA education in China is, overall, a result of the sharp increase in demand for practical business talents due to the swift transition from a planned economy system to a market economy system. It is also a microcosm of China's continuous opening-up, the adoption of more international practices in economic activities, and the gradual internationalization of management education. Despite this, the current scale of MBA programs in China is still far from meeting the needs of China's economic development.
