  • An Introduction to The Customer Culture Imperative with AI
    Nov 20 2024

    Welcome to something a little different on today's episode! As many of you know, I've been fascinated by the possibilities of AI in content creation, and we decided to try an interesting experiment. We fed my book 'The Customer Culture Imperative' into an AI system and asked it to create a 14-minute summary of the key concepts and takeaways.


    What you're about to hear is that AI-generated synthesis - unedited and in its original form.


    Whether you've read the book or not, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this experiment. How does the AI's interpretation compare to your understanding of customer culture? And for those familiar with the book - did it capture the essence?


    Let me know by leaving a comment or reaching out on LinkedIN.


    Let's dive into this unique perspective on building customer-centric organizations..
