The truth is that retention belongs to all of them. Organizations that treat retention as the responsibility of a single department often create silos, misaligned incentives, and fragmented customer experiences. Companies that achieve sustainable growth recognize that retention is not a function. It is an organizational outcome that requires alignment across Customer Success, Support, Product, Sales, and Leadership.
