C-Suite Network and ReadingMinds.AI Announce Strategic Partnership to Bring Voice Intelligence to Executive Community

One day after the ReadingMinds launch, we have big news to share: C-Suite Network and ReadingMinds.AI are partnering to bring AI-driven voice insights to one of the most influential executive communities in the world.

The partnership, announced on April 22, 2026, gives C-Suite Network members access to our AI voice research platform, joint thought leadership programming, and education on go-to-market and customer experience strategies powered by voice-native research.

Why this matters

C-Suite Network is the most trusted peer network for CEOs, CMOs, CROs, and senior executives across the world's leading organizations. When those executives talk about what holds their growth back, it is almost never a data shortage. It is a truth shortage. Surveys produce clean numbers. Dashboards produce charts. Neither can tell you what a customer was actually feeling when they almost converted and didn't, or what emotional shift preceded a longtime account's decision to leave.

That is what ReadingMinds solves. Emma, our AI interviewer, runs short voice conversations with your customers and prospects, detects six emotions at intensity 1-9 per turn, and delivers cited, traceable insights in hours rather than weeks.

What the partners said

Jeffrey Hayzlett, Chairman, C-Suite Network: "Executives today are drowning in data but starving for true insight. What ReadingMinds.AI brings is ability to hear truth behind numbers: real human emotion, hesitation, excitement, and turn that into clear, decisive action."

Tricia Benn, CEO, C-Suite Network: "ReadingMinds.AI delivers something truly irreplaceable. By capturing emotional layer of customer conversations that traditional surveys and analytics simply miss, giving business leaders a clear advantage."

Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, ReadingMinds: "Neither surveys nor agencies gave us the truth. So, we built ReadingMinds: voice-native AI interviews that detect what words hide, fully traceable, and delivered in hours, not weeks."

What C-Suite Network members get

• Access to the ReadingMinds platform, including Emma's AI-moderated voice interviews
• Joint thought leadership content on voice-native research, emotional intelligence in decision-making, and the post-survey era of customer intelligence
• Educational programming focused on go-to-market execution and customer experience, built on real voice-interview data rather than theory

Why voice, and why now

The era of text-based surveys is ending for the same reason paper maps were replaced by GPS. Static tools cannot keep up with how fast customer sentiment shifts in a real market. Voice captures the hesitation, enthusiasm, confusion, and confidence that text simply cannot, and AI makes it possible to do at a scale humans never could.

Executive teams that adopt this layer now are not just adding a tool. They are rebuilding the signal architecture underneath their decisions. For the C-Suite Network community, that shift starts today.
