Avoid the chaos of superuser turnover


One of our podcast listeners asked, "One of our superusers is doing a great job, but is going unnoticed by her colleagues and her manager. I'm worried that she will leave and that everyone will be worse off. Can I do something here?”

This is a really interesting question that speaks to the potential chaos that can happen when a superuser leaves... but gives hope that there may be a way to stop that turnover in its tracks.

In this week's episode of our Impact Weekly podcast that just dropped today, Johan and I talk about:

  • The importance of recognizing your superusers
  • The reasons behind this lack of recognition
  • How to boost your superusers' position
  • And much more!

Trying to get customers to execute perfectly when they don't have experience, expertise, or even the desire to do so. Yet, we've designed our entire operation and organization to try to make this work. We've created a profession and discipline around this. That's insane if you think about it.
