Customerland

In this episode, we sit down with Vinod Muthukrishnan, VP and COO at Webex Customer Experience, to explore his journey from the merchant Navy to co-founding Cloud Cherry, a company focused on improving customer experiences. Vinod shares how he made customer needs a priority, even when technology posed challenges, which eventually led to Cloud Cherry's acquisition by Cisco.

We dive into how AI is reshaping customer experience, including innovations like auto CSAT that predict customer satisfaction without traditional surveys. Vinod explains how building customizable, client-specific solutions without the need for extensive coding is changing the way businesses approach CX.

The conversation also addresses the balance between improving customer satisfaction and meeting business goals. Vinod offers practical insights on using AI, automation, and analytics to close the gap between efficiency metrics and customer satisfaction, including understanding how executive compensation and NPS are connected. Finally, we discuss the cultural barriers that can slow progress and how aligning business objectives with customer-centric strategies can lead to meaningful improvements.
