Do you understand the "why" that drives their day to day priorities? Are they giving you their unvarnished perspective in a way that can help your company learn and grow?

So ask yourself, are your customer conversations and QBRs really about them - or are you focused on asking what they think about your product? Do you understand the "why" that drives their day to day priorities? Are they giving you their unvarnished perspective in a way that can help your company learn and grow?
