SUMMARY:Customer Success is a Lie: NRR is a Lagging Indicator
DESCRIPTION:📅 RSVP NOW | Customer Success Is a Lie: LinkedIn Live Series\n🗓 Wednesday\, May 13\, 2026\, | 11 AM CT \n📌 Topic: NRR: Lagging Indicator – It Tells You What Happened. Not Why. Not What’s Next. \nThis is the topic that started it ALL. \nNRR is treated as the ultimate truth of CS performance the North Star metric that proves your team’s value. But here’s the uncomfortable reality: by the time NRR reflects a problem\, the customer has already decided. \nThe renewal was won or lost long before the number appeared on your dashboard. \nJoin me and an incredible panel of CS thought leaders:\nRob Zambito\nAlex Turkovic\nLara Baeckers\nThomas Voight \n…as we break down what NRR actually tells you\, what it doesn’t and how to build the forward-looking signals that let you steer outcomes before the quarter closes. \n💥 This is part of the ongoing series: Customer Success is a Lie: Why We Should Keep Believing in It – a provocative\, myth-busting exploration of why so many CS organizations are measuring the wrong things and leaving revenue on the table. \nIf your CS strategy lives and dies by NRR\, you don’t want to miss this. \n🔗 Drop a comment or DM me to get the RSVP link. \n#CustomerSuccess #NRR #CSLeadership #CustomerSuccessIsALie #RevenueRetention #ChurnPrevention #CustomerSuccessUniverse

SUMMARY:Onboarding and re-boarding at 10x — without hiring
DESCRIPTION:​Onboarding and re-boarding at 10x — without hiring \n​Thursday 21 May · 16:00 CET · 30 min \n​Onboarding is the most resource-intensive motion in Customer Success. Re-boarding — when a customer stalls\, churns a use case\, or goes through a major change — is often even harder. And most CS teams are expected to do both with the same headcount they had two years ago. \n​AI changes the equation. Not just for your team\, but for your customers too. \n​The real unlock isn’t automation for automation’s sake. It’s leverage — removing work that your customers used to have to do themselves. Fewer forms to fill in. Fewer kickoff calls to prepare for. Fewer follow-ups to chase. When AI handles the heavy lifting on both sides\, onboarding actually gets done. \n​In this session\, Johan Nilsson — founder of Startdeliver and Jecta — shares the concrete playbook for running onboarding and re-boarding at scale with AI. \n​You’ll leave with: \n​→ The 5 onboarding tasks AI can own from day one → How to build a re-boarding motion that doesn’t depend on CSM bandwidth → Practical examples of AI removing effort from your customers — not just your team \n​Hands-on\, 30 minutes\, no fluff. Built for CS teams that need to do more with what they have. \n​Free to attend. Seats are limited. \n​Register above to secure your spot.
