Since I published my new book at the end of April , I have intentionally held off adding to my social media content. In fact this post will be the first in June 2018!

In fact, so much is happening in industries around the world, I and other CX commentators have been spoilt for choice.

Isn’t it remarkable how things we learn at one point in our life come back to us as welcome gifts later? Early in my career, I wrote a book about helping children develop humor skills ( Humor, Play and Laughter – Stress-proofing life with your kids ). I became a student on the topic because I wanted my children to learn how to constructively use humor to take themselves and the world around them less seriously.

To stay ahead of the competition, airlines keep close tabs on customer experience to address flyers’ concerns, preferences, and needs through reports like the recently released J.D.
