Or, you look at your to-do list at the end of the day, and realize that it's not just that you didn't spend your time coaching your team or any of your other big priorities; your list for tomorrow is also filled with distractions that won't do anything to help your team accomplish what matters

The Net Promoter System® (or NPS) has been a popular customer experience metric since its creation in 2003. NPS is used by the biggest companies and leaders in its industries: from Apple to Airbnb, from Amazon to Tesla. At the same time, NPS is often a subject of critics and misunderstanding.

A few weeks ago, Gartner revealed a pretty stunning prediction : by 2020, 40% of bots and virtual assistants launched in 2018 will have been abandoned.

Companies these days are fixated on Customer Experience. If you’re not, I hope you’ve worked up an S.O.S. because you’re going to need one! It’s true, our customers are looking for much more than the product – they want to feel valued and be part of something special, something bigger than themselves. Leaders scratching their heads wondering how they can provide an “experience”, are turning to their Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) and counting on them to make it happen.
