How did our customer support team care for our customers while attending our week-long company offsite in Mexico? Front’s Head of Support ​@Kenji Hayward spills the beans on what it takes, including turning everyone at Front into a temporary customer support agent!  As Kenji puts it: This isn't about getting someone else to do our job — it's about getting everyone closer to our customers and product. With company-wide queue coverage, our support team was able to take a well-deserved break (even though it was only three hours — they’re true heroes!) to team bond and enjoy themselves.  👀 Read Top-Tier Support newsletter to find out how we had fun and maintained 100% CSAT the whole time.

A recent McKinsey study revealed that employees are three times more likely to be using generative AI (GenAI) today than their leaders expect. Yet, 48% feel they would use AI more if they got more training and support from their companies.  That’s where a company AI policy, describing when, where, and how to use AI, comes in. A documented AI policy aligns everyone around a shared vision of working with AI and builds confidence that AI use can be strategic. Just as important, these guardrails ensure responsible usage — lowering data, security, and compliance risks.Front’s Head of IT, ​@gregkn Greg Karp-Neufeld, shares his practical guide for implementing an AI policy, including a free download of his AI Handbook template. 👉 Learn more here
