    Why Great Leaders Communicate Like Creators

    Internal communication is broken. Most CX and leadership teams rely on outdated methods — long slide decks, endless trainings, and metrics that don’t drive action.   In this episode, Ben Phillips, founder of CX Alive!, explains how to transform the way your business communicates.   Drawing on two decades in customer experience and leadership, Ben breaks down why short-form, authentic content — like internal vodcasts and micro-videos — builds clarity, connection, and alignment faster than PowerPoints or all-hands meetings ever could.   We cover: ✅ How to make your CX strategy relatable and actionable ✅ The biggest communication gap between leadership and frontline teams ✅ How to communicate effectively with Gen Z employees ✅ Why podcasts and vodcasts are the future of internal engagement ✅ Why NPS and CSAT are outdated metrics — and what to measure instead   If you’re looking to improve employee engagement, CX performance, or team alignment, this conversation will change how you think about communication, storytelling, and measurement inside your organization.   #InternalCommunication #CXLeadership #CustomerExperience #EmployeeEngagement #CXStrategy #BusinessCommunication #LeadershipDevelopment #GenZAtWork #Vodcasting #StorytellingAtWork   Connect with Ben at: Cx-alive.comBen Phillips LinkedIn  Key Moments:   0:00 Who is Ben Phillips and what is CX Alive! 4:00 How to communicate effectively with Gen Z employees 9:44 How business communication is changing 12:50 How to tell better stories 22:00 Why you only have 8 seconds to capture attention 24:00 Why podcasts and vodcasts work so well for businesses 31:00 Is NPS still relevant in 2025? 34:44 What are the best metrics to track in CX? 37:59 Are customer surveys still relevant? 41:11 AI in CX: what’s hype vs. what’s real 48:24 How to build a team that understands the “why” 51:28 Three words that separate good content from great – Are your teams facing growing demands?

  6. How to Lead Brands That Translate Globally

    How to Lead Brands That Translate Globally

    What does it take to build a brand that resonates across cultures… not just across markets?     In this special dual-guest episode, Lacey Peace sits down with Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi, and Katherine Melchior Ray, UC Berkeley lecturer and former executive at brands like Nike, Hyatt, and Louis Vuitton. Together, they co-authored the new book Brand Global, Adapt Local: How to Build Brand Value Across Cultures and they’re here to share the lessons learned from decades of global brand-building.   Nataly and Katherine dive deep into why cultural intelligence is the most under-leveraged skill in modern CX, why brands that ignore cultural context are building in globalization debt, and how something as simple as a melon can repair — or ruin — customer trust. They explain the importance of shared values, the risks of applying the same CX metrics globally (spoiler: NPS doesn’t mean the same thing in every country), and how AI is both accelerating and complicating cross-cultural brand connection.   From real stories about Kit Kat’s flavor strategy in Japan to awkward CX blunders in global grocery stores, this episode is packed with tangible takeaways and perspective shifts for any business looking to scale with humanity and intention.   Get your copy of Brand Global, Adapt Local: How to Build Brand Value Across Cultures now!     https://www.amazon.com/Brand-Global-Adapt-Local-Cultures/dp/139861971X   Key Moments:     00:00 Do Customer Service Expectations Differ Across Cultures? 06:03 Why Cultural Intelligence Is Crucial for Global Business 07:04 Co-Authors’ Nataly Kelly & Katherine Melchior Ray’s Meet cute   15:18 Real-Life Cultural Missteps and Surprising Service Norms 24:13 Can AI Replace Cultural Insight?
