HR Happy Hour 204- Customer Success and Advocacy

Hosts: Trish McFarlane, Steve Boese

Guest: Howard Tarnoff

Listen to the show HERE

This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve and I were joined by Howard Tarnoff, Senior Vice President for Ceridian HCM, and the person responsible for launching and overseeing the Ceridian’s award winning Customer Success Program “XOXO”.

On the show, Howard shared some of the pretty unique approaches to Customer Success and Advocacy that Ceridian has put in place – creating ways for customers to connect and share information and best practices, highlighting success stories for both organizations and individuals, and engaging customer advocates at numerous points along the HR buying journey.

Everything has changed about how organizations and individuals conduct product and market research, how they find and engage with trusted advisors and colleagues, and how they expect the relationship between solution provider and customer to evolve. Innovative approaches like Ceridian’s “XOXO” customer success program represent how modern, empowered, and mutually beneficial provider/customer relationships have adapted to meet these changes.

We also lamented (yes, again), about the terrible winter weather, Steve pitched his idea for a ‘Snow Day’ on May 22, we previewed some upcoming events on our calendars, and dropped the first hint about an exciting HR Happy Hour announcement that is coming soon.
