SELLEST OSAST
In this special highlights episode, we bring together the sharpest takes from two of our most insightful guests: David Edelman and Alex Mead. Together, they explore the evolving landscape of customer experience, personalization, and the rise of AI in service delivery — but from two very different angles.
David Edelman, former CMO at Aetna and a pioneer in customer-centric digital transformation, shares why "customer experience is the product", how AI can be used to delight and empower customers, and what the future of hyper-personalized services looks like.
Meanwhile, Alex Mead, a no-nonsense customer service experience strategist, passionately critiques the over-hyped CX buzzwords and defends the vital role of customer service leadership in delivering real, contextual help — not just brand polish.
