They talk about how customer expectations have changed, why the move to SaaS is creating a different path to modernization, and how AI is beginning to reshape everything from content creation to how customers discover and engage with brands.They also explores a challenge that remains just as important as the technology itself: helping organizations move beyond simply owning powerful platforms to actually using those capabilities to create better customer journeys, stronger experiences, and greater efficiency.Rick brings a unique perspective shaped by years of working alongside customers, partners, and teams through significant change, while staying focused on what ultimately creates value.Support the show
