Recapping Week 5 of The Customer Service Revolution Conference
It’s week 5 of The Customer Service Revolution Conference featuring another amazing roster of speakers including Ken Blanchard, Adrienne Bankert, J.R. Heckman, Dave Murray, and John DiJulius.
Here are some takeaways from each of our speakers this week:
John DiJulius – Chief Revolution Officer of The DiJulius Group
- It’s not the great idea that works, but the great passion behind it. Passion is the emotional fuel that drives your vision. You need that passion to get where you want to go. It’s the fuel that keeps you going when there’s no outside validation for your dream.
- How to create a reality distortion field – You have to reimagine logic. If it makes logical sense, there’s a really good chance that someone else is already doing it.
- What it takes to be a revolutionary – You are a revolutionary if you are fascinated by the future, restless for change, impatient for progress, and deeply dissatisfied with the status quo.

- Effective leaders focus on two elements: results and human satisfaction.

- Have the right target and vision.
- Treat your people right
- Treat your customers right.
- Have the right kind of leadership and that is servant leadership.
Adrienne Bankert

- Reimagine what kindness really means – Kindness is not only powerful but also necessary in today’s marketplace.
- Schedule kindness throughout the day. Look for areas where you can do it so you can be programmed to function in a kind mindset.
- Use your resources for the benefit of others.
- Be kind to yourself. Make the time for whatever you can do to stay relaxed because people need a safe harbor in the eye of the storm. Because your kind self is your best self.
