Silo dysfunction is the inability or lack of collaboration inside the corporate machine to link together what it does for and to the customer.

Without collectively managing the impact from managing as siloed organizations, companies will continue to deliver random and defaulted experiences. And this absolutely erodes a customer’s ability to define what sets one company apart from another. It erodes long term customer profitability. Most companies inflict customer pain. Sometimes the end game for customers becomes merely to pick the one that will inflict the least pain. Is that how you want to differentiate yourself?
