Written by Jenny Dempsey, 5.25.2022 You don’t actually want to contact customer support. If you have to, this means you have a problem or an unanswered question. You can’t find the answer in the knowledge base on the company website, instruction book or the FAQs. When you do reach out, you want to know that you’re in good hands and that an answer or resolution to your issue is waiting at the end of that interaction.

The contact center at many organizations doesn’t get the strategic consideration it deserves. My former contact center team at British Telecom seemed to be viewed primarily as a cost center, a necessary expense. As a result, their team was always pressured to streamline staffing, coached to be as efficient as possible with multiple priorities, and designed to generate the least amount of cost.

Design and collaboration go hand-in-hand. When we want to discuss problems, imagine new ideas, and brainstorm solutions, it’s best to bring people together – whether in person or virtually. Collaboration comes in many flavors, from small informal working sessions and group critiques to full-blown workshops. But beware: just bringing people together doesn’t automatically guarantee creative outputs and ideas.

Carol was a camper. That's a term for someone who is content in their current job and doesn't want to get promoted, add new responsibilities, or move to a new company. Carol showed up every day, did her job, and went home. She didn't want to "get ahead." Carol just wanted to do her job. She liked it, and she was good at it. She had been in the same job for many years when I took over the department.

A customer journey can be defined as the interactions a customer has with your brand from the very first time they engage with you to the point of purchase. It’s another way of saying the customer lifecycle, or the steps your customers take from the time they first become aware of your brand to the point at which they become your brand’s biggest advocate. .

And that’s where the Web3 phenomenon comes in. What I believe that it might accelerate, is that companies simply won’t have any other choice but to create extra value (on top of product or service) because it will trigger a huge shift in the power relation between the brand and the consumer. And the reason is data, which used to lie in the hands of companies, but will be granted back to the user with Web3: the customer will be able to choose if brands use their data.

It started as a typical, busy Wednesday. Then a miracle happened. A half-day event got cancelled. Another meeting was rescheduled for a different day. My calendar was suddenly wide-open. It was tempting to fill that found time with more work. I took my dog to the beach instead. We had a lot of fun. I was present, and didn't look at my phone, except to take a picture of my dog, Dublin, enjoying herself.
