Building a proactive customer success practice requires anticipating customer needs and addressing them before they become problems. What’s more, building quickly requires a strong vision, a strong plan, and a strong and efficient operations team. In this insightful interview, Irit Eizips sits down with Stephanie Berner, Global Head of Customer Success, LinkedIn Sales Solutions at LinkedIn, to discuss the critical role customer success operations can play when transforming a global organization into a thriving and efficient customer success practice that drives retention and growth. Stephanie provides valuable insights into how to make this transformation, emphasizing the importance of being thoughtful in every aspect of the customer experience. She highlights that the shift from a reactive to a proactive customer success practice is a journey, not a destination. The core of the interview revolves around the creation of the “Vision CS 2.0: Customer Success Reimagined”, which is a multi-year plan that outlines the vision and strategy to achieve a proactive customer success practice on a global scale. She provides a comprehensive overview of the considerations for creating a CS Ops team and how an “embedded partner” model can be a powerful strategy for making fast progress. Overall, this video interview is a must-watch for anyone looking to transform their organization into a proactive customer success practice.
