With so much talk around it, it was about time we dedicated a whole episode to AI – and boy, have we got a power-packed one for you! Meet Rick DeLisi who is leading AI adoption in an industry that almost everyone one of us has had a direct experience with – customer service. Rick is Lead Research Analyst at Glia, co-author of the bestselling business book The Effortless Experience and a multi-time contributor to the Harvard Business Review with more than 20 years of experience in the customer experience industry.

This conversation underscores Rick’s data-backed approach to understanding the gap between what leaders expect from AI and what actually happens in customer experience. Many organizations are wrestling with how to make AI a genuine advantage without falling into costly traps, and Rick’s grounded research has spurred meaningful conversations at several leading companies. Hit play to get the lowdown!
