Today, we kicked off the first class of our Executive Communication for Customer Success Managers course, and we examined the topic:
“The CSM as a Strategic Communicator.”
Beyond the numbers, metrics, and technical aspects of being a CSM, effective communication is a business asset for the modern-day Customer Success Manager.
We examined the difference between a CSM and a Customer Service Representative and why the role of a CSM goes beyond simply responding to customer needs.
A CSM is expected to understand the customer’s business, build trust, communicate value, manage expectations, influence decisions, and become a strategic partner to both the customer and the organisation.
And all of these require one critical skill: the ability to communicate strategically.
Because knowing your work is one thing, being able to communicate your value, insights, recommendations, and decisions in a way that builds confidence and drives business outcomes is another.
That is the kind of communication we are building in this course. If you’re a CSM or you’re transitioning into this space, the date for Cohort 2 will be announced soon. Stay in touch with the brand.
