Conversations That Matter, a podcast from Uniphore

Do we place more emphasis on technology or humanity?

Humans or technology?  

When we’re talking about customer experience, and what makes a fantastic customer experience, the question is always asked, “Do we place more emphasis on technology or humanity?” Meaning, do we invest more in AI and automation, or do we rely on the people to give that human touch? What if the answer is both? What if it’s not an either/or, but a both/and? What if, in order to build an AI tool that is truly representative of the customer base, you have to have a broad representation of actual humans? A group that looks like your customers?  

On this episode of Conversations that Matter, we sit down with Jeannie Walters,  

CEO & Chief Customer Experience Investigator at Experience Investigators, for a conversation all about:   

What brands have to understand about customer experience to set themselves apart 

Being a part of the team that delivered the first online insurance quote in history 

Breaking down silos in order to deliver a winning strategy 

Measuring the effectiveness of remote working 

When you retire, will people line up to say goodbye to you? What legacy are you going to leave when all is said and done?  

If you invest in the humanity of your employees, tell them the truth, and equip them with the tools to do their jobs and do them fearlessly, you’re going to leave the kind of legacy that you can be proud of.  

On this episode of Conversations that Matter, we sit down with Jeanne Bliss, Founder and CEO at Customer Bliss for a discussion all about humanity, AI, and so much more.  

On the show we discussed:   

How the 3 block-long line of people saying goodbye to her father at retirement shaped the way she approaches her career 

Why the ability to swivel is more important now than ever before.  

How, with the right set of metrics, AI can be the game changer in your customer contact center
