One might say - building products, selling, partnering, exploring powerful technologies, saving costs, increasing revenues, improving operational efficiencies, building a better brand…and many more (pick your favorite). No doubt, these are definitely your day-to-day bread and butter activities and objectives. We are paid to execute, to deliver...

The Customer Experience. It can be purchasing, brand, technical support, usage, product, design. Each of us in our own roles/functions all contribute to this thing called Experience. Experience is why the customer buys our product, refers us to her friends, talks us up on facebook, tweets about her excitement using it (yeah - FitBit!), is proud to carry and show off (iPod, iPhone…..), and generally feel great about oneself. This last point is the most important..
