A Monthly Update from the Customer Engagement Leadership Council


Dear Council Member,

Welcome to The Pulse, the monthly membership update for Customer Engagement Leadership Council members. We are thrilled to have you on board, and we are looking forward to doing and discussing great things together…in addition to sharing cutting-edge ideas and insights we plan on having some fun, too!

As a Charter Member, please remember that you are the pulse of the council and we will be collaborating with you to build and create a vibrant and visionary Customer Engagement community. We look forward to assembling an outstanding group of leaders, colleagues and friends excited and invigorated by all the changes and developments beckoning on the customer contact landscape.

Steve’s favorite quote:
“Deliver bad news early and in person.”
– Ron Williams, former President and Chairman of Aetna Incorporated

Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose.
You’ll laugh and learn as Zappos Chief Executive Officer Tony Hsieh humorously shares the different lessons he has learned in business and life.

“We are surrounded by a digital halo. People will soon be happier with automated solutions. In this era of techno- consumerism, which means high customer expectations and demand, we must provide self-serve solutions to meet the demand of always being connected.” Stephen Loynd, Global Program Director, Frost & Sullivan.
