I had a whole other topic planned for this week, then yesterday I read this NPR article called “Martin Luther King is not your mascot” by Leah Donnella. Leah reminded me that MLK is not a day to promote your business. So this week’s Madak Monday is about leaving space, to reflect and celebrate a man who did so much.

‍

Here is a quote from The Washington Post in 1983 by Coretta Scott King on the vision of how the holiday honoring her husband should be observed:

‍

"The holiday must be substantive as well as symbolic. It must be more than a day of celebration . . . Let this holiday be a day of reflection, a day of teaching nonviolent philosophy and strategy, a day of getting involved in nonviolent action for social and economic progress."

What Is CX, and Why Does It Matter?

Customer Experience, also known as CX, is more than just a customer’s opinion of a product or service. Every single interaction that a customer has with your brand or business makes up the Customer Experience. This includes the first time someone discovers you through social media or a lead generation email, their satisfaction with the purchasing process and the product itself, and their interactions with customer service and support.

These phrases are synonymous with having an open mind, a desire to understand and innovate, and a constant drive to know more. When someone with these traits is also logical, great at communicating, and goal oriented, they are an exceptional strategic thinker.
