A Monthly Update from the Customer Engagement Leadership Council
|
Dear Council Member,
Wow, there are a lot of Council happenings coming up! The Council will meet in October to discuss the critical issues for 2017. There's also an Intuit Site Tour and an Executive Roundtable on Cross Enterprise Collaboration and Integration of Brand Experience. Intuit has many teams generating customer insights that are fed back into their core product teams to eliminate customer pain in their offerings; join us to learn more about Intuit’s people, their dynamic capabilities, and their collaboration with product teams.
We have a full agenda at our 12th Annual Customer Contact, West: A Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchange, which features our inaugural Customer Service Recognition program. Find out which companies rank as High Achiever in five unique categories, and what they did to receive the recognition. Be sure to book your flights to Tucson soon!
