Treat your customers well and your employees better - Interview with Liza Smyth of Formstack
Today’s interview is with Liza Smyth, who is the SVP of Customer Experience at Formstack. Liza joins me today to talk about how EX and CX efforts in organizations are often handled separately, why you need to prioritize and foster a positive employee experience, the important role that Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging plays in this and what leaders should be thinking about and doing so they can merge their CX and EX efforts. This interview follows on from my recent interview – The killer combination: Customer success, happiness and the right technology – Interview with Prashanth Krishnaswami of Zoho – and is number 445 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders that are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees. NOTE: A big thank you goes out to the folks at Zoho for sponsoring my podcast this month and particularly the team at Zoho Desk. Zoho Desk is trusted by over 50,000 businesses around the world to elevate their customer service and the team over there recently asked me to write a whitepaper for them that explores How focusing on employee happiness and customer success can drive business results.
