Companies often say they want customer, employee, or compliance insights. But the real 
question is—are you ready for what those insights may reveal?

When employees coach customers on how to answer surveys, the data stops reflecting reality. Real service gaps get hidden, trust is lost, and leaders miss the insights they need to improve.

If your business relies on survey scores, this is a must-read. The numbers might look good, but what’s really happening with your customers?
