How CX Leaders Can Leverage Emotional Intelligence to Lead Their Teams to Success Human emotions are complex. Studies have uncovered? 27 basic emotion types —which is why it’s no surprise that a person’s feelings can be difficult for the next person to comprehend, let alone for a computer to analyze and capture. However, when you consider that emotions are central to customers’ decision-making processes, a data-driven tool that can help you understand how customers truly?

Once upon a time, in the vast realm of online commerce, there lived a humble checkout button overlooked by many. Yet, within its humble click lay the power to transform a mere visitor into a loyal customer. 🧐 💡 Getting checkout right can mark the difference between a successful sale and an abandoned cart, yet many businesses fail to make payments a part of their commerce strategy even when it has a direct impact on revenue.

A while back, I wrote an article entitled “Great Service is Great Theater”. Today I want to offer another article about the very same subject, an encore performance so to say. So, here it is: There are some who say that they, as customer service professionals, have been trained to act the part to be happy to serve. They believe they are acting. They claim they can never “be the part” to be happy to serve.

When customers miss payments, it’s up to collections departments and agencies to recover what is owed. This can be a stressful process for delinquent customers (often experiencing financial hardship) and businesses trying to balance recovery with maintaining a positive customer relationship and brand reputation. The addition of debt collection regulations further complicates an already delicate interaction.

I frequently hear from people who are trying to learn new skills. They know I create a lot of content around customer service training, so they ask me for some recommendations. Can I suggest a class, a blog, or a book to help them? I usually don't recommend any of those, at least not right away. This might seem like strange advice coming from someone who makes a living from online training classes , has a blog , and has written several books.

Few industries are regulated as closely as wealth management. To remain viable, investment firms must comply with a complex—and often changing—list of regulations established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). When interacting with investors, firms must be transparent in their disclosures, fees and expenses, conflicts of interest and sales practice issues.

A customer experience leader’s role is often tied to collecting, analyzing and acting upon customer feedback. Many leaders are tasked with developing customer feedback programs, including how and when to send surveys, where to insert feedback tools like kiosks or chatbots, and how to report on the feedback once it’s gathered. But there’s a serious challenge in many organizations.

Here’s a question, and I think I know the answer. Would you do business with an airline that didn’t offer the ability to book a ticket online, check-in online, and get your boarding pass online? . Assuming that every other airline has these self-service digital options, what if one didn’t? Would you be willing to call for a reservation, wait on hold, pull out your credit card to verbally give your payment information, and stand in line at the ticket counter to check in on the day of departure?

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
