Who doesn’t love a quick win? Customer experience leaders often have to celebrate quick wins and show other leaders fast, to earn that next round of support. But I get nervous when people ask me about customer experience shortcuts. Too often, shortcuts within the wrong areas lead to shortfalls and short-sightedness on what really matters. Customer experience management can feel like a lot.

Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant—virtual assistants have transformed how we interact with technology and what we expect from it. Today’s most popular assistants offer a multimodal experience — the ability to interact on multiple channels — and are a major leap from the voice-only assistants that dominated the market just a few years ago. Unsurprisingly, sales of these multimodal assistants grew 30% in 2020, while voice-only assistants saw a 3% decline.

Who cares what your employees say! The opinions of your employees don’t matter. Really. They don’t. You prove this each day by your actions. You continue to leave them in the dark about upcoming actions and decisions that affect them. You do little to address their concerns. Now, they question you. They’re losing faith in you. They don’t believe in your leadership.

Cross-functional leadership is a key factor in leading any customer experience program. This often means creating a team of leaders who regularly meet to discuss priorities, resources and accountabilities that drive CX forward. These teams are sometimes called a CX Strategic Council, a CX Team, or something similar. But whatever you call yourselves, running effective meetings that keep the team engaged, excited, and working together is key to your success.

Last weekend, my wife, daughter, and I spent a lovely afternoon at a local farm, which also happened to be hosting a food truck festival at the same time. Of course, we ate too much but at least we got some sun on our faces and a day in the fresh air. We decided to take the haybale ride around the farm and got ready to see the sights. But the sights I saw were the farmer’s missed opportunity to make this ride something special and to enhance the experience of his customers.

Product warranty management has become an area of focus for many manufacturers. When a product breaks or does not function properly, the OEM is typically liable for the repair, replacement, or refund of that item according to the terms of the warranty. Aside from the high direct costs involved, warranty claims incur significant indirect costs such as: . reduction of market share . decrease in customer satisfaction . lower levels of brand loyalty.

It is a widely accepted fact that a happy customer is a returning customer. Someone who has enjoyed your service (in-store or online), product, and price are more likely to buy from you again and more importantly recommend you to their friends and family. But, with competition increasing and the barrier of change decreasing, providing a universally good shopping experience is no longer enough.

Yesterday I read a disturbing article in The New York Times about cultural change at Twitter. In a nutshell, Twitter brought in an executive to “revamp Twitter’s design team and make it more diverse.” Part of his process: asking employees “to go around the room, complimenting and critiquing one another” in a two-hour meeting. The Times reports that several attendees cried.

One of the questions had to do with creating a personalized experience. . We asked customers to rate various customer service experiences on a scale of one to five, in which a score of one signified not important at all with five being very important.
