This week we continue the conversation from last week as John guides us on how to design for positive intent to build trust, how to lean into inconvenient truths around the data you source from feedback, and why you should treat people how you’d like to be treated, but instead, treat every customer like they are your gran.  

In cybersecurity we have many customers, our external customers who engage with the products of services our organisations provide and our internal customers, our colleagues. But how many of us can truly claim to know how to be customer-led?
