With insights drawn from 58 expert sources, we explore what defined CX leadership this year — and what’s next.This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a deeper lens on the tensions behind the trends.

Episode 2. Farmer jail, the first rule of ecology club and carry on with your dull stuff.
We're staying in Ireland for Episode 2 and talking about a research paper that looks at four different pasture types (permanent pasture, perennial ryegrass, a six species mixture and a twelve species mixtures) under grazing. They measured yields, nutritive value and how plant species persisted and it's all fascinating stuff (it helps, if you keep telling yourself that). There's more. Paul cries at a boat. Michael reveals his Joel Williams man-crush. And there's four jokes. Here are the links. First things first; a link to a biograph of Fridtof Nansen. There's loads of stuff...

Layovers, Loyalty, and Lost Bags — CX in Air Travel
🪞 What This Episode Is About:What happens when you run an industrial-scale operation — but every mishap feels deeply personal? This episode unpacks the paradox at the heart of air travel: balancing relentless efficiency with real empathy. From lost bags and delayed flights to loyalty points and profit margins, we explore how airlines can turn operational friction into moments of trust — and why the brands that master this paradox will fly further with their customers.📌 Key Themes:High Emotion, High Volume: Why one lost bag can undo a million smooth flightsWhat Really Drives Cho...

Check‑In or Check‑Out? The Real CX Game in Hospitality

In this episode, we explore how Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, and Airbnb Luxe design for trust, not just control—empowering staff to improvise, personalize, and create extraordinary moments that no checklist could predict. Because in high-stakes service, the difference between check-in and check-out is often a single human gesture.📌 Key Themes:Autonomy in Action: Why service excellence starts with trustImprovisation over Protocol: When the magic happens beyond the manualCulture First, Rules Second...

AI and the Customer: Redefining Service, Reshaping Experience
🪞 What This Episode Is About:Artificial Intelligence isn’t just transforming how we serve customers—it’s redefining what service is. In this episode, we explore how AI is shifting customer experience from reactive to predictive, from scripted to hyper-personalized, and from human-led to human–machine collaboration. But as AI grows smarter and more empathetic in tone, a deeper question arises: What happens to trust, authenticity, and the human touch?📌 Key Themes:AI as First Contact: From chatbots to copilots, AI is the new front doorSimulated Empathy: The power—and limitations—of AI-generated ca...

NPS: Metric, Myth, or Movement? Rethinking the Role of Net Promoter Score in Modern CX Leadership
🪞 What This Episode Is About:The Net Promoter Score was supposed to be the one number to rule them all. But as more leaders look beneath the surface, a question emerges: has our obsession with NPS made us forget what it was meant to serve—understanding the customer? In this episode, we explore the rise, misuse, and rebirth of NPS. It’s not about abandoning the metric, but about moving from scores to stories—and reclaiming CX as a strategic leadership tool, not just a scoreboard.📌 Key Themes:The Simplicity Trap: Why NPS works—and where it f...

LEGO and the power of friction: building customer experience brick by brick

Klarna’s AI Curveball: When Speed Isn’t Service
What looks like a tech reversal is often a leadership reckoning. Klarna made global headlines when it slashed human support jobs in favor of AI—only to later rehire. But this isn’t a story of retreat. It’s a mirror for every leader chasing efficiency. When fast isn't enough, when empathy can’t be faked, when trust starts slipping… how do you steer? Klarna’s pivot reveals something deeper about what it really means to lead customer-first in an AI age.

The Disney Blueprint for Customer Experience Excellence
What if the “magic” of Disney wasn’t magic at all? In this episode, we unpack the carefully engineered reality behind Disney’s customer experience playbook. From obsessing over details to empowering employees as performers, Disney has turned process into enchantment. But here's the tension: can modern leaders replicate this without falling into the trap of surface-level mimicry? Or worse—thinking that culture alone will conjure CX excellence? We explore what’s replicable, what’s not, and what leaders must truly internalize to lead customer-first organizations.

Ce mercredi, + d'Actu revient sur cette saison de Pro League et sur la prochaine, où trois clubs bruxellois joueront au plus haut niveau. Mais il y a de quoi s'interroger : qu'est-ce qu'un club bruxellois quand les actionnaires n'ont rien de bruxellois ? Quelles sont les ambitions sportives des uns et des autres ? Pour en débattre, Fabrice Grosfilley reçoit deux journalistes. Guillaume Gauthier, pour Le Vif et Guillaume Raedts pour Le Soir et La Capitale.
