“Ed has led remarkable innovations in e-business tools and customer analytics that have helped propel CSX’s service insights and service culture and, in these areas, has set industry standards. His work has helped CSX gain genuine and constant customer engagement and insight,” said Gooden. “As a result, the company is much more skilled in anticipating and addressing the needs and expectations of current and future customers.
