CX RIOT RADIO

CX Riot Radio is the blue-collar CX podcast for dispatchers, CSRs, and field techs who don’t have time for buzzwords. Duct-taped headsets. Real talk. No fluff. Just call center grit, trade industry truth, and leadership without the corporate gloss.

Strive For Excellence, NOT Perfection

Focus. Mindset. Clarity. Action. These are the things that will catapult you to excellence. Create systems and checklists WITHOUT being too rigid, and execute with the end result in mind. Welcome to Season 3 of CX Riot Radio. Merch: https://cx-riot-radio.printify.me/products Books: https://caffcx.blogspot.com/p/cx-riot-radio-books.html
