The following is our comprehensive 2020/21 ‘’quarantine’’ list of best readings about customer and employee experience, customer success, innovation and design.

The list features a great group of many new writers mixed with traditional ones. This year’s list also includes great European, Latino, and American authors. We hope you enjoy the books we've listed. I liked all of the books, and the list is not in order of preference, but in the order in which they were read. Below, we’ve also attached our previous year's list for you to see. Enjoy these, and let me know what you are reading over the holiday period and in 2021!

Interesting looking forward to more of such an article but would also like to say something about how AI tools such as chatbots are changing the world.
A chatbot is the future of insurance and banking services. They can provide efficient customer support with minimal setup. They improve customer operational support and go easy on your pocket as well. Get an asset by reducing liabilities here -https://bit.ly/3tIUUdP
