EMPLOYEE REACTIONS

CREATE A CUSTOMER-DRIVEN CULTURE THAT INSPIRES A LARGE ORGANIZATION

I don't think Mary was a good use case. She clearly didn't have a business-oriented mindset.

Mary still did not possess enough knowledge on using QuickBooks after being a small business owner over an year.

They have a lot of passion towards their work. I feel motivated to work to make it simpler for them to pursue their passion without the burden of external factors.

We need to do lot more to actually help our customers live their passion.

It brings to light how complicated just keeping the financials are for small businesses. And this is on top of the actual product or service they are providing.

PROS

Can show the context of a customer’s life to a large audience

Brings customer insights to life (their own words are powerful!)

CONS

Video editing is time-consuming

Some customers are intimidated by the camera

Collecting and Sorting Mountains of PaperworkAccountant Pain in Collecting & Sorting Data

ROLE PLAYING: ACCOUNTANT ACTIVITY

CREATE A CUSTOMER-DRIVEN CULTURE THAT INSPIRES A LARGE ORGANIZATION

ACCOUNTANT ROLE PLAYING - REACTIONS

I could feel the urgency in getting the activity completed which reflects the reality of tax deadlines.

Accountants are more flexible than I thought – I had a stigma that they are stuck in their ways, but I had to pivot a lot during the exercise depending on the clients, and it made me realize that Accountants have to adjust to accommodate their clients.
