After @airindia messed up with incorrect auto emails about our lost bag, Praveen Sundesha from JDH ground staff went above and beyond to provide us with correct info and updates, and we got our bag back in 48 hours. Most times, it’s people which provide CX, not computers.

@xavez 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Bert_VdA @StefanSchippers @teamleader @visma 1. bij een integratie kan het idd zo zijn dat er een issue aan de andere kant is
2. een lastiger omweg maar de info waar je naar op zoek bent kan je wel via de API fetchen - https://t.co/VowZjZC4RT

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@Bert_VdA @StefanSchippers @teamleader @visma Dag Bert, de interne UUID is idd niet beschikbaar in CSV e.a. exports, en we hebben ook een beperking op welke custom fields er in de exports meegenomen kunnen worden. We zijn jouw vraag intern aan het bekijken, en ook e-invoicing staat op de 2024 roadmap.

Why this is *not* just one single old narcissist greedy man's problem. 👀

For us Belgians: shame on the Antwerp diamond scene, btw.

Another common question I’m answering working with scaling tech companies is…

Q. What’s the worst leadership advice you’ve heard?

A. By far the worst is “Hire great people and get out of their way”.

Let me explain… 🧵 (1/32)

@tdpauw @PipelineConf How can I help? 🤲🏻 We can seat 40ish people in our auditorium @teamleader

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@tdpauw Still, it's worth your while to ask 3x Why.

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@tdpauw As far as I can *hear*, there’s NO fan in M1 MBP. Yet the design specs tell differently. 😁🤷🏼‍♂️ Much much better than anything before!

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@tdpauw With my M1 Pro (medium spec'ed) I'm now more aware of connection issues (bandwidth, network stability) than anything else. Which is awesome - having not to think about battery and fan noise anymore.

Another common question I’m answering working with scaling tech companies is…

I'm afraid not, Arman.

@Telenet Beste Bert, *rolls eyes* … https://t.co/cCF4ct6T3j

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@Telenet - ondanks alle feel-good campaigning blijft het toch moeilijk om écht klantgericht te denken.

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

@bluxte @stefanomaz @ianosh @bdelacretaz @tcurdt @crafterm @silentpenguin @gianugo Sure do! Great you still have the entire collection! :)

Quality is the fastest way to get software into production. https://t.co/1lpXA4Bbx6

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

Adding to that: same with recruiters, BTW. It should actually be easy in Tech, as we have all the acronyms precisely laid out for you.

[Steven Noels @stevenn]

#hiring on a Seller's Market. Should that preclude candidates from actually reading the job requirements? There's a lot of bad happening in the recruiting process, but sloppiness and lack of consideration seem to be the recurring ones.
