In superior/subordinate relationships, subordinates often develop negative feelings over time. Part of that is natural -- as with the persnickety teens above -- as we attempt to assert our individuality. Part of it may be the result of poor prior experiences with authority. Part of it may owe to emotional immaturity and inappropriate reactions to having one's ideas challenged. In any event, most of us can recall a time when our own issues caused us to push back against the advice or orders of others. In a CRM context, that tendency can directly endanger efforts to improve sales, support and marketing.

VOC is a vital part of any communication strategy because sometimes I want to tell you what I think and if you allow me that opportunity, and I feel that my voice has been heard, then you have improved our relationship and got me (your customer) to act as your free quality monitor and ideas guy.....this as they say is a good bet!
VOC has one challenge - there is so much information how do you get the most from it, tactically and strategically? Most companies can get good value from the actionable insights tactically but managing them as a part of a strategic dashboard has been an issue.
