Looking back at our last live event, the concepts shared by Kenneth I. Chenault, Fareed Zakaria, Matt Price, and Anand Chandrasekaran are as relevant as ever: ✅ AI’s impact is accelerating ✅ The future belongs to teams that blend tech + human connection ✅ The best way to build a 100-year brand is through CX “Brands are a cluster of values, both rational and emotional. You need to craft a rational value proposition, then develop an emotional connection. When you can connect the rational and the emotional, you’ve got a supercharged brand. And the best way to connect, rationally and emotionally, is through customer service.” — Kenneth I. Chenault, Chairman at General Catalyst, former CEO and Chairman of American Express 🎥 Watch the full video: https://lnkd.in/gCWWjB98 #CustomerService #CXInsights #GenAI #CSAT #AmericanExpress
