The new book is out! Pick it up here!
I’m a big fan, as you know, of negative feedback. I suggest that CX professionals be greedy for negative feedback. Since slaps on the back and hoorahs from your most ardent fans don’t really help you improve, you should be eager to hear “suggestions” from your Customers as to how you can better serve them. [...]
There are articles all over the place and books overloading shelves in the business section of the stores having to do with strategies and branding. One of the theories that I find appealing is that, when it comes to strategies and visions and missions, it’s important to leave your products or services out of these [...]
We sometimes have an officious way of dealing with our Customers, almost as though they’re the problem that we have to deal with. As Customers ourselves, we witness this all the time, and surely as CX professionals and leaders we’re also more aware of it when we see it. It’s interesting, then, that it ever [...]
Here is the final post in a series about building a world-class CX program in your organization. I introduced the component parts here, expounded on aligning your CX strategy here, delved into the Voice of the Customer here, and showed how to put it into action with your Process Engineering program here. Now it’s on [...]

Soon I’ll write about Process Engineering and wrap up with notes on what it takes to build and maintain a Customer-centric culture. Folks [...]

An introduction to the concept can be found here, and look for briefs on the moving parts (VoC, Process Engineering, and CX Culture) coming soon. Here we’ll kick it off with a discussion about aligning your [...]
In this article I’ll explain the components needed in place to elevate an organization’s Customer Experience. I won’t go too far in depth into the four parts but rather provide an overview of how they work together with a brief explanation of what they are. Following, in a continuation of this series of articles, I’ll [...]
One important facet of efficiency and positive CX is making it easy for Customers to deal with you and navigate your processes. The reason this is important is because corporations are necessarily defensive entities: we create processes to protect our organizations from risk and loss. That protection can come in the form of cash-on-hand, liquidity, [...]
You’ve likely heard about the concept and practice of “closing the loop” or a “closed-loop feedback” (CLF) cycle. What is it, and how does it work?
