Customers and the market as a whole are often watching closely to see what commitments they make and how they perform against those targets. For supply chain professionals, this means it is critical to understand all the risks covered by the ‘umbrella' of ESG, including environmental (e.g., climate change and emissions), social (human rights, labor), and governance (compliance, sanctions, and anti-corruption).Heiko Schwarz is the founder of riskmethods, now Sphera Supply Chain Risk Management. He has successfully led companies through the adoption of supply chain risk management (SCRM) technology for over a decade.In this livestream-based session, Heiko joins hosts Scott Luton and Enrique Alvarez from Vector Global Logistics to discuss:• Why ESG is an expanding part of global supply chains and how it factors into the ongoing effort to manage supply chain risk• The cross-functional collaboration required to build a sustainable ESG program that achieves its stated goals at scale• How technology is not only making it possible for supply chain teams to balance the demands of risk management and ESG targets, but also setting them up for success as wellAdditional Links & Resources:Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.comCheck out our new Supply Chain Now Media Kit: https://bit.ly/3emdLcKSubscribe to Supply Chain Now and all other Supply Chain Now programs: https://supplychainnow.com/subscribeJoin the NOW Community: http://bit.ly/41kpUSOLeveraging Logistics and Supply Chain for Ukraine: https://vectorgl.com/stand-with-ukraine/2023 Q1 U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index: https://bit.ly/3VuwnIkWEBINAR- “Decoding Digital Transformation” – Charting a path forward: https://bit.ly/3VvVc6VWEBINAR- 5 Reasons Network Design is Essential to Supply Chain Resiliency: https://bit.ly/3MxcCNsThis episode is hosted by Scott Luton and Enrique Alvarez.

    Introduction: Welcome to Five & Thrive: a weekly podcast highlighting the Southeast's most interesting news, entrepreneurs, and information of the week, all under 5 minutes.  My name is Jon Birdsong and I'm with Atlanta Ventures. Companies Worth Applying To: There are several companies looking for SDR's including Greenzie, AdPipe, and Copient Health. If you or any of your network know a talented recent graduate looking to break into sales, I cannot recommend these options enough. SDR's are needed across many companies and these three are ones I know that will cultivate them into a valuable, qualified, and efficient sales professional.   Event of the Week: Last week I was on the Friday Nooner with Pete, Jackie, and Joe of GrepBeat and through our wonderful conversation, was reminded that Grep-a-palooza is coming up on June 1st. It is being held in Raleigh and has a great set of topics and discussion points. We put the link to the entire agenda in the show notes.  Company Coming Up: I came across a unique and fast growing company out of Decatur this week called Volanto. Founded in 2014,. Volantio frees airlines from the constraints of fixed capacity and they do this through a dynamic platform that moves select customers on popular services to alternate off-peak choices post-booking (with compensation).  This is fully automated self-service process which allows airlines to secure more prime capacity, improved guest satisfaction, all while significantly improving their bottom line.  Volantio's customers include 15+ airlines globally.. Volantio was founded by Azim Barodawala and Fenn Bailey and they just raised their Series A last September which includes customer, Alaska Airlines. Impressive progress.  LinkedIn Post of the Week: I follow several thought leaders whether it's on LInkedIn or Twitter and every now and then one post just blows me away with its simplicity and timeliness and that happened with a recent post from Seth Radman. Seth is the CTO of Infinite Giving and has built dozens and dozens of products and one of his most recent posts just struck such a wonderful chord was around MVP's and pushing out a product. He writes: “If your MVP doesn't immediately drive word of mouth growth, improving the product won't help. Adding more features to something that didn't get people excited on Day 1 won't make it better.” The simplicity in this message makes it resonate so well. If future customers in your market are not getting excited about the value prop of your product, it will never matter that the degree of it's robustness or functionality. At Atlanta Ventures, we call this authentic demand and it is required for a market – even if it is initially a niche market – to build something successful. Great thought leadership Seth and keep creating.  Platform Announcement of the Week: FlockSafety, which helped secure a dangerous shooter in Atlanta two weeks ago, announced a major product and really platform evolution in the business. Their 4 major products which includes their license plate reader (LPR), now incorporate the Flock Safety Raven product, their FlockOS product and the FlockSafety Condor. This mix of software around audio, video, and streaming services makes up for their full suite of services to fight crime in communities and I can tell you, as my kid's school was locked down two weeks ago, I'm very glad these advancements are being made.   Flock Safety currently serves 3,000 communities across the U.S. The company's devices and software provide the evidence for police to solve about 7% of reported crime in the U.S.   Raise a Glass: This week, Eskuad out of the Atlanta Tech Village raised $1.6M led by Outlander VC. Eskuad is a mobile-first data platform built specifically for field operations. You don't even need wireless access. Their products help you build forms, enter data, manage tasks and teams, with world-class offline function. Customers are saving 20% in operational costs and getting reports delivered 20x faster. Congrats to Eskuad on the round and the future ahead.  Annnnnd that's five minutes!

Customers are looking for experiences that feel natural and intuitive to them.As technology continues to revolutionize data, it's important to shift the balance of the customer experience into the hands of AI to streamline that process. Ensure you have knowledgeable people in your organization and restructure your data systems so they are built for AI.Don't be afraid to kill off your systems. With all of these new developments in AI and data, it pays to be adaptable. By practicing “data Pilates,” you're creating systems that have a strong core, but are flexible and sustainable.-------------------“Don't be afraid to kill off your systems, in the spirit of AI coming down the pipe and needing to rebuild these things. The way I see it is, you really need to practice this concept of data Pilates or data yoga. Come up with a really strong core, but make sure it's really flexible and it's able to do a lot of things.” – Krish Sailam-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(02:20) - Krish's career journey*(07:16) - Krish explains Nextdoor*(10:10) - Industry trends in customer engagement in tech*(20:41) - Changes in customer behavior in tech*(26:41) - Challenges in the customer engagement journey*(29:24) - How Krish defines “good data”*(39:04) - A time Krish was surprised by data*(42:15) - Changes in customer engagement in the next 6-12 months‍*(45:26) - An example of another company doing it right with customer engagement (hint: it's Little Spoon and Spotify)*(48:08) - Krish's recommendations for upleveling customer engagement-------------------Links:Connect with Krish on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorGood Data, Better Marketing is brought to you by Twilio Segment.

    Do you want to make more sales from your emails? We know how. And that's by using buyer psychology in email marketing to your customers to buy from you again and again. Ready to find out our best-kept secrets?(They're not really secrets by the way - we're more than happy to share so you can take your business to the next level!)SOME EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: (0:15) Join our FREE Facebook Group. (4:41) What actually is buyer psychology?(9:17) People's beliefs impact the way they buy.(13:55) Other factors that impact the buyer's psychology.(21:45) Use stories in your email marketing.

(32:21) Share social proof (and sell hope).(36:07) Use urgency in your emails.(39:17) Subject line of the week.What actually is buyer psychology? Psychology is a huge part of what we do – it's at the core of our work and frameworks. The idea here is to get people to buy based on what they think and feel about something. Because thoughts and feelings affect how people buy things. What we experience over the course of our lives leads us to who we are today, which is why two people may feel differently about the same set of circumstances. That's what makes us the humans we are. And this concept also rolls over into the process of buying. You might have two people who are demographically identical but who are psychologically very different and think differently about a lot of things. Just like us two, for example, which is why we tend to buy things for very different reasons! People's beliefs impact the way they buyOne of the things that impact how people buy is what previous experience they have with what you sell. If they've been ripped off by someone else in your niche, or if they've failed before, that's going to influence what (and if) they buy. So in our case for example, we know we have to do things to make sure we show that our approach is very different – it's no bullshit and straight to the point. It's open and honest.When people have beliefs or previous experience with someone in the same industry, they might approach your product or service with misconceptions. For example, a lot of people who already do email marketing don't think they need to hear anything new from us, so they'll immediately put their walls up. But our approach is completely different!The point is that someone's beliefs about what you sell and what you do affect their ability to buy. Do they believe you're trustworthy or that your process will work? Do they think you have their best interests at heart?What beliefs do people hold about themselves? On top of that, you also need to take into account the beliefs that people have about themselves. They might believe your programme works, but will it work for them? They might question this because maybe they tried something similar in the past and failed. The beliefs they have about themselves can contribute to buying or can stop them from buying. The psychology around how people buy isn't all positive or all negative. But it's something you can definitely tap into to fuel people's decisions. Because not only do people have beliefs about you and what you sell but also self-imposed beliefs about themselves. So if someone thinks they can only succeed through accountability, for example, your job is to tell them your programme has an element of accountability.Don't try and fight people's beliefs – instead,...

    How to Leverage Customer Feedback to Enhance Every Stage of the Customer Journey Shep Hyken interviews Evan Klein, Founder and President of Satrix Solutions, a customer experience and employee engagement consulting firm. He talks about how businesses can encourage customer feedback and how to leverage that to improve the overall experience. Top Takeaways:   ·      The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is the question that lets your customer rate the likelihood of them recommending your business on a scale of 0 to 10. A rating of 9 or 10 is a promoter. Customers are more likely to recommend you after a great experience.   ·      A successful NPS program in your business ensures that all of your employees are aligned and understand their role in delivering an exceptional service experience.   ·      The frontline is important, but we need all employees to act based on the feedback of the customers. Every employee should leverage customer feedback to think about their role in enhancing the customer experience.   ·      Be open to really listening to the customer. NPS is a good way to start understanding your customer's experience with your brand. Adding open-ended questions like “What can make your experience even better?” can give you so much more context and rich feedback.   ·      Survey and ask for feedback from different audiences. Decision makers, influencers, subject matter experts, and users experience your brand in different ways. Tailor your surveys with each customer's experience in mind.   ·      Leverage your promoters. Use their feedback for marketing purposes, testimonials, and case studies. Find feedback patterns that will influence your product roadmap, service delivery model, support channels, and future investments.   ·      Plus, Shep and Evan discuss how to maximize customer participation in the age of survey fatigue. Tune in!  Quote:  "Be open for context and find patterns across all the feedback you receive from your customers. Probe and understand customer frustrations. Mobilize your promoters and leverage their feedback to operationalize creating excellent customer service."   About:   Evan Klein is the Founder and President of Satrix Solutions.

    Ep169 Keith Meier of Assurant: Listen to your customers

    The Voice of Insurance

    Play Episode Listen Later May 9, 2023 45:30


    The more time we spend in this industry the more we learn that there is very little that is genuinely new. Take the insurtech community's recent discovery of the idea of embedded insurance. To read some of the posts about this on social media, this is an idea forged in the white heat of technology and so recently-minted that it's still hot to the touch. Well, today's guest puts that idea into considerable perspective. Keith Meier is Chief Operating Officer of US-headquartered Fortune 500 insurer Assurant and has spent a career of over twenty-five years working in the business to business to consumer insurance space – or B2B2C as it is more often called. Operating in 21 countries, there is almost nothing that Keith and Assurant don't know about embedding insurance right into the heart of the product offerings of the world's largest consumer brands. So this is a very mature sector and what follows is a masterclass on how to succeed in this specialist niche of the industry. Keith's absolute customer-centricity will be a revelation to many listeners from the wholesale world. What's clear is this is a long-term business that needs the right cultural approach to work for all parties. You have to offer real value or you just won't last. But when it works, it really works. The insurer grows profitable business and service revenues, consumers get great service and added-value products and the consumer giants get new revenue streams and more loyal and better-quality customers. What's also clear is that technology is enabling this segment to be so much more responsive than it has been in the past, with new products configurable at scale in a matter of days and weeks at negligible cost. That's clearly the part that's exciting the insurtechs – and the growth prospects are indeed considerable. But here is one embedded incumbent who is way ahead and is going to be very, very hard to disrupt! LINKS We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com/

Join 10's of thousands of your fellow learning leaders and receive a carefully curated email from me each Monday morning to help you start your week off right... Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12   https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 Frank Slootman is the CEO at Snowflake. Frank has over 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur and executive in the enterprise software industry. Frank served as CEO of ServiceNow from 2011 to 2017, taking the organization from $100M in revenue, through an IPO, to $1.4B. Prior to that, Frank served as President at EMC following an acquisition of Data Domain Corporation, where he served as the CEO, leading the company through an IPO to its acquisition by EMC for $2.4B. He's also the best-selling author of Amp It Up. Notes: Frank's work ethic was developed as a child in the Netherlands. In his teens, he had summer jobs harvesting tulip bulbs and walking behind a tractor ten hours a day. He also cleaned factory toilets one summer in the plant where his dad worked. “The Man In The Arena” Theodore Roosevelt – Frank put this at the beginning of Amp It Up.  After retiring from ServiceNow in 2017, Frank had no intention of taking another CEO role, but people like him “have a hard time leaving the arena.” It's exciting to be back in a CEO role with Snowflake. Hiring -- “Hire people ahead of their own curve.” Hire more for aptitude than experience and give people the career opportunity of a lifetime. NO MBO -- “Another source of misalignment is management by objective (MBO). Which I have eliminated at every company I've joined in the last 20 years.” Push the pace -- Leaders set the pace. “Instead of getting back to me in a week, I asked, “Why not tomorrow?” Change the cadence. Push the pace. The leadership "must-have" qualities: A need to prove something Unbalanced They want to show the world something... They have passion High trust Need some ego, but it has to be in check Legacy? "I don't think about legacy much. When you're dead, you're dead." Frank's leadership team: We are not balanced, we are available to each other 24/7. Drivers vs. Passengers -- “Passengers are people who don't mind simply being carried along by the company's momentum …They are often pleasant, get along with everyone, attend meetings promptly, and generally do not stand out as troublemakers … While passengers can often diagnose and articulate a problem quite well, they have no investment in solving it.” Frank wants front-seat drivers who'll take ownership, make trouble, and help navigate. Raise Your Standards -- Push for insanely great. A leader must always push the standard higher. Focus -- “Founders don't have a mindset around operating companies. Focus is one of our number one things. You need to learn to have extreme, machine focus, and most people don't even know the beginning of what that means. They think they do, and they don't.” “I'm more of a Patton than an Eisenhower,” he says, known for constantly driving the troops forward. Sequoia's Carl Eschenbach remembers, “When we brought Frank into Snowflake, at our first board meeting he said, ‘Let me tell you how I'm running the board meetings and how you're going to participate. We're going to keep this very simple. I'm not even gonna tell you anything about the good stuff that's happening because you already know that—I'm going to dive into the shit that's broken and how we're going to fix it.'” Very Brief Retirement -- In 2017, Frank spent time regatta sailing, winning the iconic ocean race, Transpac. Race from Los Angeles to Oahu. (To win, “We focused on recruiting talent”). Put The Success of The Company Ahead of Your Own – If you want to build a Snowflake-sized company,  you can't be about the celeb-CEO lifestyle. “That's not real life. Real life is you're terrorized and uncomfortable every day of the week. People always ask me, ‘Is this normal?' I'm like, yep.” Snowflake - Hit the ground running on April 26, 2019.  Good news: They were on already on a tear. The bad news: “The company was quite impressed with itself.” Growth in all areas (revenue, retention rate, total customers, $1m Customers, Forbes Global 2000 Customers, Customer Satisfaction). The first 90 days as a new leader. It's a combat zone. You must quickly assess what's working, and what's not. Who should stay on the bus, and who should get off?
