As readers know, I’ve been experimenting with different ways to communicate ideas this year (starting with the audio post a few weeks ago).

And I decided to focus my talk on Customer Experience (CX) Loops, which is a topic that I thought would be easier to tackle with prepared slides + hand-wavy examples + live Q&A.

Ideally with a good customer feedback framework you could learn what helps customers learn your product progressively giving them many aha moments along the way.
