Jolijt and Jacob say, “we focused on creating a culture where everyone was aligned that we were going to sacrifice everything for the customer experience period. End of discussion…We even barred conversations about competitors in company discussions. Because if we weren’t talking about whether or not it makes a customer’s life better, then it shouldn’t be in the discussion. It’s about what we can do for our customers.”
