COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Dixa, a leading customer engagement platform that creates value for brands and customers in a conversational, friendly, and engaging way, today announced the addition of Devin Poole to its leadership team as Global Head of Market Research.

Poole joins Dixa from leading global research and advisory firm, Gartner, where he held several senior positions including Senior Director of Advisory, and recently Senior Director and Analyst. Poole came to Gartner through the 2017 CEB acquisition, helping to bolster the Gartner offering for Service & Support leaders. Prior to Gartner, Devin Poole served as Director of Advisory Services at CEB influencing key executive decisions and playing an instrumental role in diagnosing critical business issues.

He holds more than 15 years of experience within the customer service industry and is an esteemed thought-leader and expert in the focus areas of customer loyalty, engagement channel strategy, management, and customer service talent management.

“We are very excited to welcome Devin Poole to the Dixa leadership team, says Mads Fesselius, CEO and Co-founder of Dixa. Devin’s impressive analytical skillset will be applied to increasing market intelligence and supporting our product innovation moving forward.”

“Devin will also be applying his deep industry expertise to efforts aimed at improving our product positioning across the global marketplace, and will be a strong asset for the commercial team in welcoming new logos to our customer base.” 

Devin Poole will lead go-to-market operations, work cross-functionally with Strategy, Sales, and Marketing teams and help to strategically position Dixa for continued growth amongst its expanding customer base. Responsibilities include improving customer experience through market research and intelligence, designing and facilitating new engagement programs, and supporting the creation of new products that will revolutionize customer experience for the end-user through Dixa’s multi-experience approach.

“There are three main things that led me to Dixa: The product, the purpose, and the people,” says Mr. Poole. Dixa is an amazing platform, leading the charge in pioneering a multi experience approach that helps the service function in any business deliver insurmountable value to the rest of the organization.

“As the platform is built by the people who ‘wore the headset,’ the company is uniquely positioned to help solve the most significant and longest-standing problems that customer service leaders face today.”  

Mr. Poole says, “The folks at Dixa are a cut above when it comes to their excitement and drive to fix a broken customer service model. Combined with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the industry, the team at Dixa is going to help evolve customer service for the better.”

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
