The customer crossed five departments. The journey broke at every handover.
One customer request crossed marketing, sales, product, service and IT. Each department completed its own task correctly, so each believed the problem sat elsewhere. Nobody owned the handovers between them — and that is where the customer waited, repeated themselves and gave up. The customer sees one company and one promise.
The customer does not see your silos. They feel them.
