I was in London recently and strolled past a man in Hyde Park exclaiming, “You’ve got to have faith!” to a crowd of onlookers. A cheeky lad yelled back, “Faith? I already got that one. George Michael. Tower Records.” Even the preacher cracked a smile at the sarcastic quip. I came away with something more profound: that the same word can have radically different meanings depending on the context.I have spoken to several customer service companies and they all claim to have...

As he says in an interview with his Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences...

What Communications Service Provider (CSP) is not being challenged these days? Customers demand more and more from their network and expect to be dazzled at every moment. Customers are tempted by rich video content, social networking, and a plethora of apps. Social networks can mean customers are even more likely to stray to a competitor or publicly speak about brands that fail to live up to their expectations. Nurturing brand consistency across a variety of channels is...

By Eva Skidmore @evaskidmore As one who is willing to pay morefor a great experience, I may be a tough customer, but I am one of millionsplacing significant demands on companies to serve me better.

Only 39%of companies earned a CX index rating of “excellent” or “good,” but 80%...
