We look at why transformers struggle with long inputs, how state space and retention models keep context at linear cost, and how scaling state size unlocks reliable recall across lengthy conversations, code, and documents. We also cover practical paths to retrofit existing transformer models, how in context learning can replace frequent fine tuning, and what this means for teams building agents and RAG systems.   Learn how product leaders and researchers measure true long context quality, which pitfalls to avoid when extending context windows, and which metrics matter most for success, including recall consistency, answer fidelity, task completion, CSAT, and cost per resolution. You will also hear how to design per user memory, set governance that prevents regressions, evaluate LLM as judge with human review, and plan a secure rollout that improves retrieval, multi step workflows, and agent reliability across chat, email, and voice.

Host: Bob Furniss (without co-host Amos) Guest: Daniel Thomas, Informa Location: ICMI Conference Expo Floor Guest Background Daniel Thomas approaches contact center industry from a research background Surveys audiences and writes research reports Has "front row seat" to industry transformation Conducts the annual State of the Contact Center survey About the State of the Contact Center Report Comprehensive benchmark study surveying contact center professionals Covers multiple verticals including: Training and skills Compensation and salary Technology use Leadership perceptions Strategy Tracks year-over-year progress Recent additions include AI and workforce training questions Key Surprising Findings 1. Contact Centers as Strategic Intelligence Hubs Major shift: Contact centers increasingly viewed as "strategic customer intelligence hubs" rather than cost centers Described as "customer intelligence and nervous system" No other department has closer customer proximity or more customer data C-suite now acknowledges value with direct data funnels informing executive decisions 2. AI Perceptions and Impact 72% believe AI will transform roles, not replace them Only ~25% think AI will lead to workforce reductions AI expected to handle "level one, rote, monotonous, repetitive work" Agents will focus on: Complex needs and edge cases Soft skills: empathy, communication, problem solving, critical thinking 90% of surveyed leaders believe humans necessary as AI overseers Gartner prediction: 40% of agentic AI projects will fail by 2027 (often due to neglecting human oversight) Agent Evolution Agents increasingly viewed as: Consultants Solutions architects Higher-tier problem solvers "White glove service" providers Rising expectations due to AI support Agents becoming intelligence providers to C-suite More analytical roles: identifying trends, patterns, creating intelligent summaries Top AI Implementation Concerns Customer resistance (top concern) Data accuracy Data privacy and security Lack of proper AI governance Workforce and Quality Management Insights Workforce Models (Nearly Equal Three-Way Split) In-office full time Hybrid Fully remote Models remain transitional and subject to change Increased scheduling flexibility critical for retention Quality Focus Shift Traditional metrics: CSAT, utilization, average handle time New priority: Agent experience rising in importance Recognition that internal customer experience drives external customer experience Customer Satisfaction Challenges Current CSAT surveys often lack nuance Can't distinguish between: Poor agent performance vs. poor company policy Single bad experience vs. overall satisfaction Need for more qualitative feedback mechanisms "Watermelon effect": High metrics but poor actual experience Channel Evolution Significant jump from multi-channel to omni-channel implementation Growth in non-traditional channels: Social media SMS/text Video Technology enabling unified customer history across channels Key Takeaways Successful organizations treat contact centers as "valuable strategic sources of intelligence" Organizations not recognizing this value are "dropping the ball" and will "see the consequences" Contact centers serve as the "hub" and "nervous system" reaching everywhere in the organization When no one knows the answer, they turn to the contact center Notable Quotes "If your agents aren't excited about AI, then you actually haven't communicated to them how enriching and transforming it could be" "Agents are increasingly going to play a role where they are the eyes and the ears... providing the intelligence back to the C-suite" Contact centers as "the strongest data... the hub... the nervous system that reaches in everywhere else"

Why will agentic AI redefine every digital interaction, and what foundation do enterprises need to make it safe, trusted, and real time? In this episode of Eye on AI, host Craig Smith sits down with Jeff Lunsford to unpack how a neutral customer data platform like Tealium becomes the control plane for agentic systems. We cover how to collect and unify first party data responsibly, enforce consent and identity across channels, and feed the right context to models so agents can act with confidence in the moment. You will hear how real time profiles, event streams, and deterministic identity power personalization, automation, and transactions across web, mobile, ads, email, and customer support. Learn how leading enterprises are preparing for agentic commerce that could double digital interactions, why governance and privacy must be embedded into delivery teams, and which standards enable safe transactions and payments with agents. You will also hear how to build an "agentic front door" for your business, design guardrails and spending allowances, choose where to run reasoning and inference, and measure impact with metrics like conversion rate, ROAS, CSAT, and cost per resolution. ​​Stay Updated: Craig Smith on X: https://x.com/craigss Eye on A.I. on X: https://x.com/EyeOn_AI

What happens when your past keeps rewriting your future?We all carry stories — ones we didn't choose, ones that shaped our reactions, confidence, and leadership. But what if those stories aren't true anymore? What if the version of you that learned to survive isn't the same one called to lead?In this transformative episode, Jason VanRuler, MA, CSAT — a nationally recognized therapist, speaker, and author specializing in relationships, attachment, and dating — joins the conversation to share how facing your broken places can lead to true connection and personal freedom. Jason's journey from a chaotic, trauma-filled childhood to becoming one of the most respected voices in emotional health and leadership offers a roadmap for anyone ready to take ownership of their story.Featured in major national news outlets, known for his strong social media presence, and having spoken on stages to thousands, Jason brings both professional insight and raw honesty to every conversation. He's the author of Get Past Your Past (Zondervan, 2023) and the upcoming Discovering Your Communication Type, set to be released in April — a groundbreaking look at how our attachment styles shape the way we speak, lead, and love.He reveals why truth is the ultimate kindness, how confidence is something we earn through small, consistent action, and why uncovering your origin story is the foundation of authentic leadership. Whether you're leading a team, a family, or yourself, this episode will challenge how you view growth, success, and self-awareness.Quotes:“The best kind of confidence is the kind you earned. You can only earn it if you know where you're starting.”“If we don't really understand why that's the goal, we'll never get there. What fuels us fools us into thinking, ‘When I get X, I will feel Y,' but fulfillment comes from knowing our true origin story.”“You don't have to do the big thing every day, but you've got to do a thing every day that helps you be better—and do it consistently.”Actionable Takeaways:Identify your “scale moment.”Write down one area of your life where you've been avoiding the truth — your finances, health, or relationships. What would it look like to face it honestly this week?Audit your personal story.Reflect on a belief you've carried since childhood (“I'm not good enough,” “I always mess up,” etc.). Ask yourself: Is this still true today — or just an old story I've never rewritten?Earn your confidence through small wins.Choose one habit or routine you can do daily — no matter how small — that reinforces trust in yourself. Consistency, not perfection, builds authentic confidence.Define your communication type.Are you a Peacemaker, Advocate, Thinker, Harbor, or Spark? Notice how you naturally communicate under stress, and identify one way to better connect with someone who communicates differently.Celebrate progress, not just results.At the end of each week, list one thing you accomplished or handled better than before. Pause to acknowledge growth before moving on to the next challenge.Conclusion:Jason VanRuler reminds us that growth doesn't begin with perfection — it begins with honesty. When we stop hiding behind stories that no longer serve us and start owning where we really are, we gain the power to change everything. Confidence isn't something we're given; it's something we earn through daily discipline, reflection, and courage.Whether you're a leader, parent, or student of life, the path forward starts with one question:What story about yourself needs to change — and what truth are you finally ready to face?Call-to-action:If this episode inspired you, take the next step: dive deeper into Jason's work through his books Get Past Your Past and Discovering Your Communication Type, and begin building a more intentional, truthful, and connected version of yourself.

A CMO Confidential Interview with Jim Lecinski, Clinical Professor of Marketing at the Kellogg School of Management, author, and former Google VP. Jim discusses why he believes marketers are often overly focused on using AI for productivity improvements versus business growth, the gaps between marketers and the C-Suite highlighted by recent Gartner research, and the difference between "big frontier models" and "shiny objects." Key topics include: why you should avoid "gray market AI", how to manage the 5 AI risks (privacy, accuracy, regulatory, personnel, and reputation), and the false precision that accompanies a focus on intermediate measures like Click Through Rate (CTR). Tune in to hear why he's not a fan of Cannes and how AI helped figure out a wedding invitation calling for "casual to semi-formal beach attire."What should CMOs actually do with AI right now—and how do you avoid chasing shiny objects? Mike Linton sits down with Jim Lecinski, Professor of Marketing at Northwestern's Kellogg School (and author of The AI Marketing Canvas and Winning the Zero Moment of Truth) to unpack the AI application layer: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Jim explains why CEOs-CFOs obsess over growth (not merely efficiency), how to reframe marketing dashboards around business outcomes, and his simple two-by-two for AI use cases (internal productivity vs. external value creation). We cover privacy, legal/regulatory, personnel, and reputational risks—and how to mitigate them—plus a pragmatic roadmap: center on a leading frontier model and layer vetted apps instead of stitching together fragile point solutions. Jim also shares candid takes on Cannes vs. Effies and ends with a challenge: personally build something with AI before year-end.You'll learn:* Growth over cost-cutting: aligning with CEO-CFO priorities and measuring ends, not means* The AI use-case 2×2: internal productivity vs. external, customer-facing value creation* Practical examples (e.g., apparel personalization) that lift CSAT, CLV, and revenue* The 5 risk buckets (privacy, accuracy, regulatory-IP, personnel, reputation) and guardrails* How to choose core models (GPT, Gemini, Claude) and avoid “tool soup”* Why awards that honor outcomes beat awards that celebrate activityGuest: Jim Lecinski — Professor of Marketing, Northwestern Kellogg; former VP Customer Solutions (Americas) at Google; author of The AI Marketing Canvas (2nd ed.) & Winning the Zero Moment of Truth.Host: Mike Linton — former CMO of Best Buy, eBay, Farmers Insurance; CRO of Ancestry.com.Sponsor: Better marketing is built on Quad.

A mesterséges intelligencia (AI) számos helyen keresztezi az államérdekeket: már a számítási kapacitások megteremtéséhez is rögtön ott vannak a ritkaföldfémek, amelyekért globális verseny indult. Ezek után a csipek és gyártósoraik, a szükséges pénzek a befektetéshez, majd ha elkészült a csip és már számolna, akkor jönnek az exportkorlátozó intézkedések és a kiberkémkedések, hogy ellopják a terveket. Az állami aktorok pedig ott vannak az AI felhasználásában is, hiszen akár a harcmezőn, a drónokban és természetesen a dezinformációban is már az AI a műveletek egyik szíve, és az új trollseregeket is már AI vezényli.

ISV leaders from Automation Anywhere, DataVisor, and Sumo Logic share battle-tested strategies for deploying AI agents at scale, including pricing models, proof of concepts and ROI.Topics Include:Panel brings together ISV leaders from automation, fraud detection, and security operations.Companies rethinking entire business processes rather than automating incremental portions with agents.Start with immutable data before tackling real-time changing data in production.Intent for change must come from board, CEO, and customers simultaneously.Challenge: proving agent value beyond CSAT when internal teams block deployment.Sumo Logic measures Mean Time to Resolution, aiming to cut hours to zero.DataVisor cuts fraud alert resolution from one hour down to twenty minutes.Customers demand reliability as workflows shift from deterministic to probabilistic agent decisions.Automation Anywhere spent three years making every platform component fully agent-ready.Focus on business outcomes, not chasing every new model release each week.Human oversight still critical—agents are task-oriented and prone to hallucinations and drift.Humans validate agent findings, then let agents scale actions across hundreds instances.Pricing experiments range from platform-plus-consumption to outcome-based to decision-event models.Token pricing doesn't work due to varied data modalities and complexity.Next two quarters: more POCs moving to production with productive agents deployed.Future prediction: enterprise apps becoming systems of knowledge powered by MCP protocol.Participants:Jay Bala - Senior Vice President of Product, Automation AnywhereKedar Toraskar – VP Product Partnerships, DataVisorBill Peterson - Senior Director, Product Marketing, Sumo LogicJillian D'Arcy - ISV Senior Leader, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

At WebexOne, John Ortiz, Technology Sales Manager at MiaRec, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss how MiaRec is using AI to reshape the way businesses analyze and improve their customer interactions. MiaRec's platform leverages large language model (LLM) technology to deliver insights across three key use cases: Automated QA: Using AI to review and score 100% of customer interactions, ensuring that agents meet performance and compliance standards while eliminating the limitations of manual quality assurance. CX Intelligence: Automatically generating metrics such as customer satisfaction (CSAT), net promoter score (NPS), effort scores, and churn risk, giving companies a real-time understanding of customer sentiment and retention trends. Revenue Intelligence: Tracking sales opportunities and performance metrics across calls — including upsell and cross-sell effectiveness, objection handling, and missed revenue potential — to help managers identify top performers and training needs. Ortiz emphasized that the platform's customizable LLM framework allows businesses to extract any metric they need, regardless of industry or use case. “Every customer we get has different goals,” Ortiz said. “Having the flexibility to extract custom insights is absolutely key.” MiaRec integrates seamlessly with leading communication platforms such as Webex Calling, Webex Contact Center, RingCentral, NICE, Five9, and Twilio, while remaining platform-agnostic for clients with mixed environments.

“Asynchronous messaging respects customers' time—and when you meet people where they already are, CSAT, revenue, and retention follow.” — Gareth Bray, Premier CX Gareth Bray, Business Development Director at Premier CX, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss how WhatsApp is becoming an essential business channel worldwide. Premier CX, originally known for IVR audio and FAQ videos, now leads organizations through a “zero to amazing” journey on WhatsApp, helping them design, integrate, and scale conversational experiences. Bray explained why WhatsApp is booming: Global adoption — >90% of consumers in India & Brazil already use it to talk to businesses; Europe and the U.S. are rapidly following. Convenience — Asynchronous messaging beats long hold times and tethered web chats. Trust — WhatsApp sits alongside family and friends, making it highly personal and effective. The results are clear: companies report higher productivity, lower costs, stronger CSAT, and increased sales and retention. Bray shared examples from retail and utilities where WhatsApp journeys cut handle time, empowered customers, and improved outcomes for all parties. Bottom line: Just as websites once became essential, WhatsApp is the next wave of customer engagement—and businesses that delay risk being left behind.

What if you could finally prove that emotions, not just price or product features, are the real drivers of revenue, retention, and revenue growth? Too many leaders know their teams create powerful emotional connections, yet they're told “emotion is a soft skill” by the very people who control the budgets. That disconnect leaves organizations stuck defending their work instead of proving its true impact. In this episode, Stacy Sherman changes that conversation. She explains why legacy metrics like CSAT and NPS fall short, and how companies like translate small emotional gestures into massive financial results. More importantly, she shares a clear framework that shows leaders exactly how to measure emotional ROI and three practical steps you can take this week. By the end, you'll see why emotion isn't a soft skill; it's the new currency of customer experience and the most strategic advantage your business has.

Killing the Golden Goose — Why Tinkering Hurts (and How to Stop)Ever “improved” your business and watched revenue dip? This episode is about the Tinker phase—when a little success gives you a little freedom…and you accidentally starve the golden goose that got you here. I unpack the three ways owners drag healthy businesses down:Fiddling for “better.” Endless tweaks to offers, pricing, scripts, and schedules without evidence. Fix: install a change discipline—a monthly change window, small A/B tests, a simple decision log, and a weekly dashboard (leads, show/close rate, ARPU, churn, CSAT).Neglect via distraction. A shiny side project steals your best hours while the core engine slows. Fix: a Minimum Care Plan—a daily Owner's Power Hour (one growth action before anything else), a crisp scorecard cadence, 10-minute SOPs for recurring tasks, and one Primary-in-Command with clear escalation thresholds.Blowing it up. Panic leads to firing staff, scrapping models, or rebranding from scratch. Fix: a 30–60–90 recovery—stabilize, repair what worked, then improve surgically (one test at a time).You'll leave with a practical cadence to keep speed, protect consistency, and grow without self-sabotage—plus three quick actions to run this week: schedule a monthly change window, add a daily Power Hour, and pick one metric to protect every Friday.Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/

Dronele, doborâte la ordinul comandantului misiunii (DW) - Coaliția, între presiunea electoratului, măsuri nepopulare și lupte interne. „Ei știu clar că orice instabilitate duce AUR la un procent și mai mare” (Adevărul) - Nu se va putea pe banii europenilor și cu oamenii rușilor (SpotMedia) - Plaha – thrillerul politic care le aduce aminte moldovenilor, înainte de alegeri, cine a tras sforile la Chișinău în ultimii 30 de ani (Europa Liberă) Dronele, doborâte la ordinul comandantului misiunii (DW) CSAT a stabilit protocolul de reacție în cazul unei încălcări a spațiului aerian al României. Distrugerea este soluția de ultimă instanță, a precizat ministrul Apărării. Președintele Dan a convocat CSAT după ce, în urma mai multor incidente aeriene provocate de Rusia în Polonia, România și Estonia, Alianța Nord-Atlantică a anunțat lansarea operațiunii militare ”Santinela Estică”, o misiune flexibilă de supraveghere și protecție a granițelor de răsărit ale NATO în absența unor ”desfășurări fixe” și prin rotirea resurselor în funcție de amenințările punctuale, reamintește DW. Pe de altă parte, președinta Comisiei Europene, Ursula von der Leyen, a vorbit și despre un așa-numit ”zid de drone” care va trebui construit pentru a contracara provocările și atacurile Rusiei și un sistem de supraveghere a flancului estic. Măsurile militare discutate la nivelul celor două mari organizații euro-atlantice vizează și un echilibru financiar: se caută soluții pentru a evita recursul la arme prea costisitoare pentru eliminarea mult mai ieftinelor aparate de zbor autonome.   Cele trei scenarii aflate pe masa lucru a Coaliției pentru „reforma” administrației publice locale: de la forma radicală a lui Bolojan la varianta „îndulcită” a PSD (Libertatea) Așa-zisă reformă a administrației publice, în condițiile în care ținta este doar eficientizarea în teritoriu prin concedieri, este tergiversată de aproximativ o lună, iar în prezent Coaliția are trei variante de lucru, care ar putea însemna fie 13.000 de disponibilizări, fie doar în jur de 6.500. Al treilea scenariu este cel avansat de UDMR, potrivit informațiilor Libertatea. Președintele Kelemen Hunor chiar a vorbit public de posibiliatea ca disponibilizările să fie de 7-8% din numărul total de posturi ocupate, în timp ce 2-3% să reprezinte o mai bună drămuire a banului public prin reducerea unor bani de la oprirea investițiile nenecesare, carburant, întreținere etc. Practic, numărul concedierilor ar fi unde de aproximativ 10.000. Sursele Libertatea, inclusiv cele din partidul lui Ilie Bolojan, văd varianta înaintată de UDMR ca pe cea mai acceptabilă și cu cele mai mare șanse de reușită, pentru că reușește și să dea un exemplu prin reducerea cheltuielilor publice în UAT-uri unde au fost angajări excesive, dar nici să nu afecteze sistemic întreaga administrație publică.   Coaliția, între presiunea electoratului, măsuri nepopulare și lupte interne. „Ei știu clar că orice instabilitate duce AUR la un procent și mai mare” (Adevărul) Măsura prelungirii plafonǎrii prețurilor la alimentele de bază a fost luată la insistențele PSD, după un compromis făcut de Ilie Bolojan. Măsurile privind reforma administrației stagnează, iar decizia CCR pe tema pensiilor magistraților poate sa șubrezească stabilitatea Guvernul. Mai mult, criticile constante dintre partidele care formează Coaliția tensionează colaborarea din interiorul Executivului. Cu toate astea, atrag atenția analiștii, PSD, PNL și USR și UDMR trebuie sǎ mențină, împreună, stabilitatea țării. Profesorul Radu Carp subliniază că „atâta vreme cât AUR e undeva la 35-40%, coaliția este nevoită să lucreze împreună. Ei știu clar că orice instabilitate duce AUR la un procent și mai mare”. Analistul politic Ion M Ioniță, redactor-șef Historia, subliniază că actuala coaliție nu poate funcționa perfect, însă adoptarea a două pachete de măsuri fiscal-bugetare în Parlament cu asumarea răspunderii Guvernului arată că cele patru partide, deși diferite și într-un moment greu pentru guvernare, pot să ajungă la consens.

Federația Rusă știe că acum este ultima șansă de a opri integrarea europeană a Republicii Moldova. Mai mult, cu o Moldova pro-rusă, Rusia ar putea face mult deranj în Ucraina. Dacă în Republica Moldova am avea un guvern care nu ar respecta reguli europene, nu ar respecta legi europene, nu ar respecta valori europene, atunci Uniunea Europeană nu va mai avea legal posibilitatea de a ajuta Republica Moldova, avertizează europarlamentarul Siegfried Mureșan (PNL/PPE), într-un interviu acordat Spotmedia, pe tema alegerilor de duminică, din Republica Moldova.   Plaha – thrillerul politic care le aduce aminte moldovenilor, înainte de alegeri, cine a tras sforile la Chișinău în ultimii 30 de ani (Europa Liberă) Un serial puternic inspirat din evenimentele care au traumatizat Republica Moldova în ultimii treizeci de ani face furori la Chișinău înaintea alegerilor parlamentare vitale de pe 28 septembrie. Cum a apărut „Plaha” și de ce acum? Europa Liberă a vorbit cu regizorul Igor Cobileanski și cu doi dintre actorii principali – ambii români. Serialul TV prezintă ascensiunea oligarhului moldovean Vladimir Plahotniuc, unul dintre personajele care au influențat cel mai mult Republica Moldova în deceniile de după prăbușirea Uniunii Sovietice. A costat peste 30 de milioane de lei moldovenești (în jur de 1,6 milioane de euro), spun producătorii. Serialul are 10 episoade. Este disponibil și pe YouTube.

Comandantul misiunii decide doborârea dronelor sau avioanelor militare care încalcă spațiul aerian al României. Precizarile vin dupa sedinta CSAT de astazi. Consiliul s- a intrunit dupa ce in urma cu aproape doua saptamani o drona ruseasca a survolat spatiul nostru aerian aproximativ 50 de minute iar autoritatile romane au decis sa nu o doboare.       Grecia l-a extrădat pe fostul politician şi om de afaceri Vladimir Plahotniuc, pentru a răspunde acuzaţiilor că ar fi fost implicat în sustragerea unui miliard de dolari din sistemul bancar moldovenesc El a fost reținut și plasat în Penitenciarul nr. 13 din Chișinău. Extrădarea are loc cu câteva zile înainte de alegerile parlamentare din Republica Moldova, considerate cruciale pentru viitorul tarii.   Nicolas Sarkozy a fost condamnat la cinci ani de închisoare pentru „conspirație criminală” Iar Nicolas Sarkozy a fost condamnat la Paris pentru conspirație criminală, fiind acuzat că ar fi acceptat finanțare ilegală pentru campania electorală din partea fostului lider libian Moamar Gaddafi.

Navigating today's uncertain business landscape means balancing what's behind us with what's ahead. In this episode, we explore how CX leaders can use leading indicators to predict satisfaction while relying on lagging metrics to evaluate performance.Rather than collecting more data, it's about collecting the right data—spotting early signals in engagement patterns, service inquiries, and employee feedback before they show up in CSAT or NPS. We also look beyond internal data to market trends, competitor activity, and global behavior shifts to understand evolving customer expectations.As technology—and customer access to AI—advances, the information gap is shrinking. CX leaders must rethink how they deliver value in this new reality. By blending historical insights with forward-looking indicators, we can move from reporting what happened to shaping what happens next.What signals are you watching for in your business?Want to ask a question?

Customer experience pros often face a common challenge: robust metrics like NPS or CSAT fall flat outside the CX team. Why? Because other departments don't see how those numbers connect to their goals.This episode explores how to bridge that gap by translating CX data into the language of IT, Operations, and Finance. It's not about dumbing down the data. It's about building context. When CX metrics highlight inefficiencies or opportunities for cross-functional wins, they become powerful tools for collaboration.You'll hear how to align CX insights with departmental priorities so the data speaks to what each team cares about most. We also explore using behavioral and operational data, like service calls, churn rates, or purchase frequency, to demonstrate real business impact. Plus, we introduce the Customer Experience Success Blueprint, a framework designed to help CX initiatives integrate seamlessly with broader organizational goals.Want your CX initiatives to gain real traction? Start by making the metrics matter to everyone.Resources Mentioned:CX Mission Statement Workbook -- https://bit.ly/cx-mission-workbookCX Success Statement Workbook -- https://bit.ly/cx-success-workbookExperience Investigators Website -- https://experienceinvestigators.comWant to ask a question?

From the hype cycle around AI to the real-world constraints enterprises face when adopting new tech, we explore the opportunities shaping the future of business communications in this episode. We're joined by Jon Arnold, an independent tech analyst, for a conversation about the shifting landscape of enterprise communications. We talk about analysts' unique role in shaping vendor strategy and market perception. We discuss the current state of business communications technology, examining what Jon describes as the "three-legged stool" of cloud communications: CCaaS, CPaaS, and UCaaS. We discuss how these previously distinct domains are converging, with vendors increasingly offering capabilities across all three areas.We also explore how AI is disrupting the traditional communications technology landscape. Jon offers valuable insights into why AI-native companies may have advantages over traditional contact centre vendors who are adding AI capabilities, and why the pace of AI adoption varies significantly across different industries and organisations.This episode is brought to you by NLX.NLX is a conversational AI platform enabling brands to build and manage chat, voice and multimodal applications.

This week we are talking about separation anxiety with Caitlin Wolfe.  After adopting a dog who suffered from separation anxiety Caitlin wanted to be able to help other dog owners experiencing the same thing. While Caitlin works with a variety of behavior issues, she is specifically CSAT certified for separation anxiety.  Each dog is an individual and it's important that the training can be customized for each dog.  Some dogs are okay as long as someone is home, other dogs need their owner present.  This is why individual training plans are not only important but necessary.  We are talking about some of the causes and some of the misinformation surrounding separation anxiety.  One thing owners can do for their dog is contact a trainer as soon as they see signs of separation anxiety.  This way the dog doesn't have months or years of rehearsing anxiety behaviors. The goal in training is to change how the dog feels about being left alone. Even though changes in routine, housing, or family dynamics can cause set backs, Caitlin does believe separation anxiety can be cured.Don't forget to review, subscribe, and share!

Your customer says they're “satisfied.” So why didn't they come back? Stacy Sherman—a global keynote speaker and advisor with over 25 years of experience improving customer experience at leading B2B and B2C companies—challenges a metric many businesses still rely on: Customer Satisfaction (CSAT).  She explains how CSAT became the standard, why it made sense in the past, yet no longer reflects what creates true customer loyalty today. “Satisfied” usually means nothing went wrong—but that's not enough to earn retention, repeat purchases, or referrals. If CSAT is still guiding your strategy, this episode will show you what it's missing—and what to measure instead.

When it comes to betrayal, we often hear one story: the man cheats, the woman is hurt, and support rallies around her. But what happens when the script is flipped? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Adam Nisenson, a coach and author who helps men navigate betrayal trauma—a subject that's rarely talked about and often misunderstood.Adam shares his own experience of being betrayed, the cultural narratives that silence men in pain, and why so many men suffer in isolation. We explore how betrayal crushes identity, triggers deep ego wounds, and leaves men unsure of how to move forward.This episode offers insight, language, and hope for betrayed men—and for those who love them.

In love addiction, we may find ourselves feeling betrayed by a partner-- even if we don't know for sure that something is going on--while doubting our instincts, believing we're too sensitive, and giving an emotionally unavailable partner the benefit of the doubt. This feeling adds to our anxiety, and whatever information a partner is withholding adds to the dysfunction of the relationship...and we stay in the cycle of love addiction hoping things will change. In this episode Jodi talks with betrayal trauma therapist, Lindsay Haverslew, about the reality of betrayal trauma. Jodi and Lindsay share personal experiences with betrayal, and discuss signs that a partner is emotionally unavailable, tips for identifying a trustworthy person, and much more.  Show notes and resources: Music by JD Pendley Link to Jodi's website and additional resources Lindsay's website and instagram Lindsay mentioned the work of Jennifer Freyd and Dr. Kevin Skinner and the book Unleashing Your Power  Disclaimer: This podcast is shared for educational and informational purposes only.

The toxic effects of sexual trauma and abuse can be devastating and lasting. Victims’ ability to experience healthy sexuality, even if they free themselves from the abuse, is often shattered. If sexual abuse, violence, or coercive control is part of your story, certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT) and trauma specialist Tabitha Westbrook wants you to know: you are not alone, and healing is possible. Tabitha will draw on her specialized expertise, her own personal story of abuse, and a deep knowledge of Scripture to create a safe and compassionate place for you to start recovering – or even finding - the healthy sexuality God intended for you.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
