During this time, I’ve been hosting weekly live conversations on LinkedIn , with C-Suite leaders, authors, and experts in their respective fields. They’ve included influential authors like Seth Godin and CEOs like Leslie Stretch.

An executive, for example, might be more interested in ROI and scalability, while the end-user often cares more about just getting their work done, quickly and easily. . There was a time when executives were the gatekeepers who decided which B2B software products their companies purchased while the end-user experience took a back seat—but that era has ended.

Author: Jeremy Watkin. Surveys are a great way to listen to the voice of the customer, so don’t misconstrue the title of this article as being “anti-survey.” Problems occur, however, when surveys become the only way we listen to customers — especially when you consider that a good survey response rate is in the realm of 20-30%. That means you never hear from 70-80% of customers.

It hasn’t been since the May 25th police killing of George Floyd, and the resulting days of protests in America — and increasingly, across the world — from people who demand change. Prior to these events, it had been shockingly easy to think of ourselves as empathetic to all.

The events of the past week have been difficult to process and put into words. I want to foremost express my devastation and condemn the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin and so many others who have been senselessly murdered for no other reason than the color of their skin. This is a recurring pattern, and the protests that have emerged in cities across the world further highlight this continuing racial divide.
