What has been your biggest hurdle?
When people think of customer experience (CX), they sort of say ‘ how do you have a career in that?’ – People told me I was mad when I first opened doors. 25 years ago, CX was hardly known, so it was a big risk in the eyes of many. But coming from the corporate industry, I knew there was a gap in the market for businesses to be more efficient by creating better experiences for their customers. The challenge was then to convince the decision makers in the boardroom that they need to invest in CX. It's always been a challenge and a hurdle to overcome, but the proof is in the pudding. 25 years and we are still here - companies are seeing the value!
