I'm working for a support and advocacy organization for military veterans. The program is a digital transformation with several projects within it. The end customer is ultimately veterans who receive better services through enabling technology and staff that work in better ways to support these veterans. It just struck me that I may never meet the end customer. Have you had a similar experience? Saving Changes...

Sante, I have two nicknames for you and I want you to chose one:
Special Scrumian Or Influence Scrumian ? :D
I am going to refer to you with this nickname in one of my upcoming blogs.

Dear Sante
We are exchanging views on how to obtain customer information through direct customer contact.
Not through warehousing persons or their representatives.
Do my answers increase your influence or mine? :-)
It's just that .... my influence doesn't leave the same place ... neither forward nor backward :-)

@Luis, I'm not sure, but I try to reply when I am asked a question and not end my replies with another question, but a few get through ;-)

Hello Sante - I very rarely meet the vendors, the customers or even my teammates in person. I work virtually, and rarely even see my boss - maybe once a year! It seems to work well for me, though, and I've created some very strong relationships with many of these people!
