CX Pulse Check - August 2024

Experience Action

Ready for another CX Pulse Check? Special Co-host David Avrin joins Jeannie Walters on Experience Action to highlight current events and innovations in customer experience (CX) and discuss their impact for CX leaders.
What would our world look like if businesses prioritized protecting their service workers from abusive customers? First, we navigate a cultural revolution in Japan, where companies are redefining traditional norms to support their employees. We dive into how global demands for speed and convenience contribute to harsh behaviors, and Jeannie shares a personal story from an ER visit with her son, shedding light on the surprising gratitude service workers express for basic politeness—revealing much about our societal values.
Ever wondered why your favorite childhood snacks just don't feel the same anymore? In this episode, we expose the frustrating realities of skimflation and shrinkflation, using the shrinking Bazooka gum as a stark example. From hidden fees to tipping expectations, we also discuss the transparency customers crave and how businesses can avoid short-term pitfalls for long-term gains.
Lastly, we discuss parallels between Olympians and entrepreneurs. There's always an "audience" and "judges" to compete! This episode is packed with insights to help businesses create smoother, more satisfying customer experiences.
