The Top 3 Key Learnings

• Authenticity drives connection. Being unapologetically yourself builds stronger relationships with teams and customers.
• Friction impacts both CX and EX. Removing it boosts satisfaction across the board, whether for a customer at 11 PM or an employee with a mic issue.
• Appreciation is the future of engagement. It’s not about prizes—it’s about seeing and valuing every contribution in the workplace.
