Rethinking Customer Experience – with Graham Hill

Forbes has put together 101 of the best customer experience quotes. Only 3 of them feature employees, despite the fact customer experience relies on your workforce.

Simon Sinek says:

👁️‍🗨️ “Customers will never love a company until the employees love it first.”

And that’s exactly what Graham Hill, from insight6, and I talk about in this episode of the podcast. We refocus the lens, shifting away from simply the customer, to the people within organisations that determine CX.

One thing that has become very clear over recent years is the need to enable employees to have the best experience, for companies to succeed. It’s interesting how many of the 101 quotes communicate the same powerful message when the word ‘customers’ is switched for ’employees’.

That says a lot… the experience of ALL your stakeholders is a must for leaders to get to grips with.

🥇 Graham and I consider the evolution from customers first, to putting employees first.

🥇 We unpick the direct connection and key factors that companies need to be addressing.

🥇 We discuss the uptake of this shift in thinking, and the impact that Insight 6 data shows.

“If we consistently exceed the expectations of employees, they will consistently exceed the expectations of our customers.” – Shep Hyken
