Tiffani Bova
Chief Strategy and Research Officer at The Futurum Group
LAX-HNL, United States
Ranked for the last six years in the Top 50 business thinkers in the world by Thinkers50, Tiffani Bova is a leading thinker who Forbes says “reshapes our perception of growth” and The San Francisco Examiner named as one of the ten most sought after brand evangelists.
As both a practitioner and academic she offers a unique perspective and has helped lead the tech industry through several evolutions over her nearly 30-year career as Salesforce’s former Growth and Innovation Evangelist, and previously as a Research Fellow at Gartner and a sales, marketing and customer service executive for start-ups and Fortune 500 companies. She is the author of two Wall Street Journal bestsellers: Growth IQ and The Experience Mindset.
While at Gartner, her forward-looking insights and guidance helped some of the largest technology companies in the world including Microsoft, Cisco, Salesforce, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Oracle, SAP, AT&T, Dell, Amazon-AWS, expand their market share and grow their revenues. She was a trusted advisor to multiple senior executives who were responsible for shifting from on-premise to as-a-service business models resulting in new billion-dollar divisions.
In the late 90’s and early 2000s she was a pioneer of cloud computing, she previously led direct and indirect sales, marketing and customer service for two of the largest web-based start-ups in the US and spearheaded a newly formed division of a Fortune 500 company to $300 million in revenue over two and a half years.

Definitely not me. However, there I was standing on stage giving a keynote at “The Art Of” in Vancouver, Canada. Let me set the scene a bit. I don’t rely on notes when I give keynotes, I just try and let the story flow and reveal itself using slides to guide me. I was in the middle of my presentation and I said I didn't think it was a coincidence that Salesforce was a great place to work, one of the most innovative companies in the world and the fastest growing enterprise software company. When I got off stage, I thought there was something there to explore further so I could better understand that connection, if any at all.

How Hilton Saved $1 Billion in Energy Costs, Retains Talent, and Delights Customers

November 11, 2020
This is a simple message I’ve given critical thought to, especially after a Forbes Insights report, The Experience Equation: How Happy Employees and Customers Accelerate Growth, identified a correlation between employee experience (EX), customer experience (CX), and growth. The study found that companies that were hyperfocused on enhancing their employee engagement ultimately had higher customer engagement levels and amassed 1.8 times more revenue growth (nearly double) than organizations that solely focused on customers. Conversely, the respondents indicated that just focusing on customers did not correlate to higher EX or revenue.

Handled well, that call would create an emotional connection and a lasting memory. Whiffed, it could lose that customer for good.
