It may be as old as CX itself, but consumer insights faces a number of challenges, from relevance to impact. 

In their book Insights on the Brink, Tim Hoskins and Brett Townsend challenge the status quo of the insights profession to advocate for a bold departure from the academic and methodological roots and shift from process-heavy approaches towards actionable, empathy-driven strategies that deliver real impact for customers.

Opening All Access: Voice of the Customer 2025 Tim and Brett explain their "golden rules" for modern consumer insights and lay out a roadmap for how insights professionals can redefine their roles as strategic drivers of innovation and change.
