About this listen

In this episode of The Impact Room, Perry Fletcher welcomes Charlie Adams, Director of Customer Success and Experience at Custom Connect, customer experience judge, running enthusiast, and author of It’s Just People: A Manager’s Toolkit.

Charlie shares the story behind his unplanned journey into customer experience, why he believes most managers overcomplicate what’s actually a people-first job, and how blending practical people skills with emotional intelligence can beat shiny AI promises any day.

Tune in for actionable advice on leading teams, handling real conversations, and staying resilient, plus why Charlie says, “If you want to lead well, just do the simple stuff better than anyone else.”
