Over the past few years, we have received feedback about our work as a business publication and a community. Our readers see us as individuals who question concepts, don’t hesitate to investigate the value of services and products, and always find a way to put things in a broader socio-cultural and economic context. 

This is what makes us so unique. Not only do we provide information to the community as a vessel of knowledge, but we are equally embedded within it. We engage, we interact, we make meaningful connections, and we foster opportunities. 

A huge part of our community is defined through our contributors. Simply put, we wouldn’t be here without those CX professionals, strategists, thinkers and gurus sharing their insights with us, which we then give back to you. It’s a cyclical community process!

In 2023, we published 250 pieces on our website – including thought leadership stories, case studies, interviews, and more. Our content featured all industries and articles, ranging through retail, technology, finance and sustainability, just to name a few. 

We’re so grateful for every piece that we publish, and take a lot of pride in the content narratives we’ve formed this year. We will continue questioning, researching, and making CXM an open, inclusive, diverse, and authoritative publication.Today, we want to celebrate and say thank you to our top contributing authors of 2023. Thank you for contributing to our mission.
