Tune in as we share real-talk conversations between women working in CX and those influencing the CX agenda from the periphery too.
‘Does the customer experience community really need Women in CX?’, with Ian Golding
Joined by Global CX Specialist, Ian Golding, in episode #703, he and Clare discuss the need for support and collaboration in an industry that often leaves us feeling isolated, foreground the importance of recognising our own privilege, and address the scepticism surrounding the need for women’s communities in 2024.
‘Why CX is failing and what we need to do about it’, with Diane Magers
With some “cheeky” questions for former CEO of the CXPA, Diane Magers, in episode #702, Clare and Diane debate the metrification of CX and how it’s become synonymous with a score, the mindset, skills and capabilities we need as CX leaders to succeed not just today but in the next generation, and how we can create clear business value in the here and now, ensuring, that like marketing and sales, our jobs are safe.
‘Does your CX/EX leave a bad taste in people’s mouths?’, with Sandra Thompson
In episode #701, Sandra Thompson details all about her “highly sensory” employee experience workshop and how, through a game of bean roulette, she served up a stark reminder to us all about the taste we leave in customers/employees’ mouths.
As well as highlighting the importance of psychological safety and the significant impact that our actions have on others, Sandra shares her thoughts on the current state of CX, her predictions for 2024 and explains why brushing up on our business acumen is key if we’re to influence the agenda.
Clare Muscutt talks with Christine Hemphill about the benefits of inclusive research and design.
“All complex problems are solvable when you really understand the flow of value to the person being designed for […] it makes the complexity start to fall away quite quickly because you’ve got something to anchor in that is very real.”
Clare Muscutt talks with Marina Bezuglova about the connection between well-being and customer and employee experience.
“All of us are people, and if on a personal level, we don't follow principles or values of health and well-being, it’s very difficult to build a corporate culture of well-being in our companies. So, I believe that personal and organisational are very much related.”
