Leaders Network

Hello! My name is Mónica Irizarry, Research Supervisor from Banco Popular de Puerto Rico.  Would love to connect with other Financial Institutions to learn from their CX Programs and how they are optimizing the use of Qualtrics.

TL;DR: A four-year study shows that companies with a strong customer experience consistently do better financially than their rivals.Key points: The companies with the best customer experience had better stock market returns than their industry averages. The gap between CX leaders and those with the worst CX grew to 23 percentage points by the end of 2024. Strong CX capabilities help companies learn from customer feedback, share those findings, and act on them quickly. This creates strategic readiness, which is a key advantage when customer loyalty is dropping. The full content is about a 5-minute read. https://www.qualtrics.com/blog/cx-leaders-consistently-outperform/What's an example of a time you've seen a company's strong customer experience efforts directly lead to a positive business outcome?

TL;DR: XM Institute identified three types of AI—Analytical, Generative, and Agentic—and explains how businesses can use each to improve customer experiences by gaining a better understanding of their customers and automating actions.Key points: Analytical AI helps businesses understand customer behaviour by analysing data for patterns, sentiments, and root causes, which allows them to make predictions. Generative AI is for creating content and contextual responses, for example, powering chatbots and virtual assistants to have more human-like conversations. Agentic AI takes action, orchestrating complex tasks across different systems to achieve specific experience goals, such as automatically creating a ticket or sending a personalised follow-up. The article offers real-world examples for each AI type, such as a university using Analytical AI to predict student retention risks and an insurance provider using Generative AI for an internal claims chatbot.

Not only popular search engines but within this community too, the use of terms like low engagement, survey fatigue and declining response rates seem to confirm the trend that surveys are rapidly losing their effectiveness. Certainly in B2B environments with their complex buying groups and multiple stakeholders, surveys often fail to capture the full customer sentiment. This transition is not a question of if, but when, organizations must adapt their customer experience strategies. So what is your organisation doing to compensate for the shortcomings of the old fashioned survey? What new ways are being found and developed to gain different and better actionable insights?

A question for the community - I’d love to hear any insights: How do you discover emerging trends, innovative methodologies, or potential disruptions in the world of Experience Management (XM)? Do you allocate time for this each week/month/quarter? And are there any unconventional or unexpected ways you and/or your teams try to learn and develop in this area?🤔

We continue to see a decrease in customer trust and feedback, especially in the government space. I'm curious to learn how other organizations approach community engagement surveys. How often do you conduct them, what sample sizes do you typically aim for vs the size of your community, and what types of questions or themes do you focus on? I'm especially interested in understanding how you balance getting meaningful feedback with avoiding survey fatigue. We seem to be surveying our residents more than other local municipalities, and I don’t know if we are gaining any value fromt that. 

Every time I access this site, my screen goes blank briefly and then reloads. Thought it was just my set up at home but I have found this also happens at the office - know it’s an odd one but wanted to check if this happens to anyone else. 

Hi everyone, I came across this excellent post about embedding empathy and Human-Centered Design into the research process.It’s a great reminder that to get powerful insights, we need to move beyond what customers say and truly understand why they feel and act the way they do.The original post has some great, practical tips for applying this mindset. If you're involved in customer experience, user research, or product design, it's definitely worth a read.You can check out the full post and join the discussion here:  

X4 London took place on 17th June!This was a big get-together, with thousands of attendees hosted at Tobacco Dock, a very cook venue.The main takeaway? If you're not on top of what your customers and your own people are thinking and feeling, you're going to get left behind!The big buzz was all around Artificial Intelligence and specifically, Qualtrics "Experience Agents" - Think of them as smart digital helpers that can have a proper chat with customers and staff, getting a real handle on what people are saying, and then sort things out on the spot. It's a move away from just collecting feedback that might not get read into taking action, quickly.It was great to see big names like Tesco and L'Oréal there. They were all saying the same thing: look after your staff, and they'll look after your customers. If your team is happy and feels listened to, they're going to do a much better job for your customers. The whole day was about using this new tech to get ahead. Using AI to figure out wh
