Coincidence? Branding? Brilliance? I just realized an insignificant but powerful message while doing my iOS update: “…features powered by APPLE Intelligence”…. With every day articles and posts around AI, knowing A stands for “Artificial”, and yet all pushers for AI claiming how “humanizing” is their own proposal, Apple leverages the A of Apple to call it “Apple Intelligence”…. A name that has built perhaps the strongest brand of this century, connecting emotionally at multiple levels. Coincidence? don’t think so… well done. In the meantime, Apple owes me the best test of its real love to me and my loyalty…to fix my 4 year old Mac that suddenly crashed despite multiple hours of calls and attempts to fix it. Will it deliver? Stay tune. #HumanExperience #CustomerExperience

Supporting our members goes beyond benefits and claims — it’s about providing personalized support through life’s hardest moments. 👇 👋 Get to know Kelsea Doucette, a dedicated #TeamCVS colleague who made a profound impact on one member’s life when she needed it most. As a Health Concierge at Aetna, a CVS Health Company, Kelsea serves as a trusted guide, explaining benefits, reviewing claims and resolving issues. 💔 For Rupa, an Aetna member facing both the loss of her husband and mounting hospital bills, Kelsea’s support was invaluable. She stepped in with empathy and expertise, simplifying complex processes, connecting Rupa to financial aid resources and offering unwavering support at every step. 💬 "She guided me through the worst time in my life," says Rupa, who continues to see Kelsea as a trusted resource and friend. Thank you, Kelsea, for going above and beyond to support our members with compassion and care. Your dedication reminds us what it means to truly make a difference.

El mercado español de mascotas sigue a la alza. Las estimaciones varían entre fuentes, pero estaríamos hablando de cerca de los 3,000 millones de euros (Gracias Lluc Ferrer Aymar ) y el número de hogares que tienen ya en casa una mascota es prácticamente la mitad de España. Su presencia, además, continúa siendo caracterizada por el gran “bond” emocional: 3 de cada 4 hogares, los perciben como miembros de la familia. Esta semana he tenido la enorme oportunidad de reunirme en Pamplona y en Madrid con increíbles líderes de una empresa ejemplar en este ramo, Gloriapets. Mis reuniones con Daniel Lizarraga Rivas, Patricio Burgos, Gabriel Morote, y otros, estuvieron centradas en como seguir creciendo e inspirando a este gran equipo de profesionales a que su misión y propósito es único y que su crecimiento solo será limitado por su propia ambición! Seguirá siendo un honor participar de sus éxitos.

Pamplona, Spain: Day #4 While in the US, we are seeing a growing trend for increasing the “recommended” tips in restaurants (from a 10% in the 1950s to nearly 20% in the 2020s) and other services, there are other countries where tipping is not accustomed… but doesn’t mean they are not greatly appreciated. Loved this one at a local superb restaurant near Pamplona. It says “those who tip, go to heaven”. #HumanExperience #CustomerExperience #EmployeeExperience HumanX Insights
