Executive summary
A B O U T T H I S D O C U M E N T
We wanted to take the pulse of the CX
community about their challenges. In this report
we summarise your feedback and offer solutions.
In response to your pain points we have defined a
few clear steps that every CX professional should
take. We have identified them per stage of
maturity as a guiderail for you.
Finally there is the CCC-model, a very concrete
framework that should drive your day to day
operations. No CX programme can be successful
without these key steps of creating value.
F U T U R E L A B O B S E R V AT I O N S
We see (not just in this survey) that many
organisations overestimate their CX maturity – if you
don’t know where you are it is very hard to know
where to go. Assess your maturity correctly!
Many CX Managers indicate that they are not sure
their role actually has impact – up to the point that they
feel that their department is there for cosmetic
purposes only.
We see that almost all CX Professionals suffer from
the same problems, but feel that their company is
specifically behind. Rest assured, we all feel your pain.

Executive summary
M O S T P E R T I N E N T C X C H A L L E N G E S
Engaging people with CX (41%):
CX professionals struggle with engaging all
departments and the (top) management to
actively show their commitment towards CX.
Making CX design a reality (39%):
The biggest challenge is showing the return on
investment in CX, closely followed by the
establishment of data collection processes and
related technology implementation.
T H E J O U R N E Y T O W A R D S C U S T O M E R C E N T R I C I T Y
Companies without a defined CX role have
lower CX maturity.
Operationalisation of CX is the main issue for
companies with lower CX maturity, as well as for
professionals who are new in their job.
Companies with higher CX maturity struggle with
engaging employees and management and
delivering CX beyond the manual.
Professionals with more developed VoC
programmes struggle with implementing
customer-driven improvements.

However, self-assessed CX maturity might be overrated. One third of those reporting highest CX maturity (‘running CX
programme in place’) do not have a continuous VoC programme in place. When we run our CXMA-assessments we
often see (particularly at C-Level) substantial misalignment between perception and reality.

The biggest challenge is the fact
that the organisational structure
isn’t organized around the
customer yet.

Very few people whom I can
share my thoughts with.
Not everyone understands what
is CX and why it should live,
and you have to “prove” your
necessity.

The CX Challenge Wheel
Each CX Challenge is related to key elements in CX management: Envision, Integrate, Engage, Improve.
E N V I S I O N
Without a strategy on company level, it is
difficult to improve CX. There is a lack of
an overall vision which is an essential part
of a successful CX program. E N V I S I O N
I N T E G R AT E
Translating CX design into operational
reality is challenging because it involves
complex processes across departments:
• data collection processes set up
• technology and IT environments
• data integration
• organisational structure
• sales and marketing changes
I M P R O V E
If there is no continuous drive towards
action based on customer insights, the CX
programme does not deliver ROI. Only if
value is created, captured and
communicated can a CX programme
become permanent.
E N G A G E
CX professionals struggle with people not
being willing, skilled and/or able to deliver
customer experiences beyond the
manual.

CX professionals are struggling most with engaging people to deliver CX beyond the manual and translating CX design
into operational reality. Together these two types of challenges are accounting for 80% of all CX challenges.

struggled with (or are struggling with right now)?

(We need) one vision.
The problem is different
point of views
in Management and
on investments.
Lack of vision and strategy
related to CX, customer
loyalty, and value
proposition delivery.
It’s a very complex field
with many variables. We
don’t know how to choose
the right path and avoid
dead ends
“
Several CX professionals stated that they struggle with a lack of a clear vision and strong strategy about the
desirable customer experience and how to get there.
Q 3. When it comes to improving your customer experience, what is
the SINGLE BIGGEST challenge, frustration or problem you have
struggled with (or are struggling with right now)?
It was very hard to convince
the rest of the organisation
(especially senior
management) of how bad
we were actually doing in
the eyes of the customer

Understand where you are as a company: “[Futurelab’s]
maturity assessment was so comprehensive and contained
honest conversations with ALL the stakeholders in the
organization. This is the way to do it, to get an honest opinion
from someone who has took the time, look at the data…”
Set the right expectations: “[They were] honest and told us
“You cannot expect miracles in 3-6 months, this is a long-
term investment”. We are repeating his sentence to this day.“
29/04/2020 19
Overcoming the ENVISION challenge:
Establish your current state, your
ambitions, and the roadmap to get
there. Make sure everyone is aligned
on the above.
This gives everyone the same
understanding and a clear goal.
Have clarity on the timelines – this is
not a quick fix programme. But we can
generate quick wins in the meantime.

While some are convinced in their
hearts, most need to be convinced in
their heads too. Show them how CX in
general, and specifically for your
company, will increase revenues and
profits.
2 . M A K E A S I M P L E
B U S I N E S S C A S E F O R C X
Establish a clear understanding of the
rational and emotional needs of the
customer, the commercial goals of the
company, how to measure it, and what
capabilities are needed to achieve the
above all along the customer lifecycle.
This is your one book to rule them all.

INTEGRATE: translate your CX design into operational reality
Translating the CX roadmap into operational reality is not straightforward. The operationalisation of CX in the
company is a challenging process requiring activities in many different areas (see next slide).
There is a lack of support in
the implementation. It does not
necessarily make things any
easier that CX programs are
complex and difficult to
understand for people who are not
trained in such projects.
ROI is the main KPI of
a company -- Show to
your boss that you're
making money is a
contributing factor of
developing a CX mindset
in the organisation.
We need to gather
feedback in a structural
manner and have the tools
to use the acquired
knowledge internally.

Get the team on board: “When we started on
implementation we didn’t know where to start. We found
Futurelab’s approach very helpful – a good balance between
listening and guiding - they don’t try to impose their views, let
us discuss options but also guide us, based on their
experience with similar companies“
Get in with all guns blazing: “We got stuck in the mud a bit.
It helped big time to get all the stories (not just best practice,
but also where it really went wrong), the cases, the
inspirations from other industries. This accelerated our CX
programme massively.”

will benefit them.

While you want to develop a robust set

help you convince your colleagues to
join your movement.

29/04/2020 24
ENGAGE - Get your people to deliver CX beyond the manual
The biggest challenge is to engage the whole company to actively show their commitment towards CX. CX
professionals struggle with people lacking skills, will, or enablement to deliver good customer experience.
Ensuring that those individuals
within the organisation whose job is
not directly servicing the customer
understand their crucial role
in the downstream customer
experience for end users.

Say it, and then say it again: “Futurelab helped convince &
communicate about the added value of NPS, by
presentations, web conferences and their structured roll-out.
This is really necessary, even if you have CEO support.“
Let the customer story be heard: “Working with Futurelab
helped us to plant the understanding into people’s head that
you need to look at the customer, always ask what does it
bring for the customer. But also show them why it is great for
them too. Basically they helped us convince our colleagues
both in the head and the heart.“

Overcoming the ENGAGE challenge:
Nobody jumps out of bed in the
morning to fulfil KPIs. Your people
need to be driven by great
experiences – let them know when
they did great things, when they
changed a life, when they helped
somebody’s business. Stories bring it
all to life, instead of numbers.
1 . G AT H E R C U S T O M E R
S T O R I E S
Often your employees know better
than anybody else what is going well
or not so well in the interaction with the
customers. Talk to them – they can tell
you great things. And also listen to
how THEY are doing. You cannot have
happy customers if you have unhappy
employees.
2 . A S K Y O U R E M P L O Y E E S
Review and adapt all your KPIs. Your
staff can only act upon the KPIs they
are given. If these KPIs (like most) are
actively discouraging customer-centric
behaviour, change them.
Start by asking your employees – they
will know which KPIs are anti-
customer.
Establish cross-departmental
customer KPIs.

Improve – act on the customer voice and the insights it brings
Acting on the customer voice and the insights it brings is needed for CX improvement implementation, and
challenging for one out of six CX professionals.
Understanding exactly where
to prioritise our focus to impact CX
the most.
When NPS was launched, they
thought okay now we have the cx
covered. Checkbox is ticked and cx
is done because we are surveying
NPS. A lot of effort and time will be
needed to turn this around.

Show the money: “We sell a lot more cars because of the
superiority of our new cx so I believe that whoever truly
understands the power of cx can make money out of it like
never before.“
Capture value: “Implementing customer-led approach
instead of product-led approach. [as a result of this,] the
customers experience that the quality of what we are offering
has gone up, and they see us now as a higher-level player,
because we understand their needs, can think on their level.”

The answer to the question “What is your biggest
challenge” is different from the answer to
the question “Why is it such a challenge”.
For instance, if it is felt like a challenge to engage
other departments, the reason for this might
not be because these other people are unwilling,
but because they do not feel any urge to be
engaged. This might be because there is no real
customer strategy, or no CX related KPIs,
no communication about the program, no visual
impact etc.
Perception of ‘biggest CX challenge’ is always subjective
Sometimes the most relevant phases are
not felt/formulated as a challenge. Very few
respondents formulated an ‘envision’ challenge.
During the envision phase typically support is
needed from the top management. Without
support, this phase might not even start and
the CX responsible will focus on other things.
And once this support is given, this phase might
go fairly easy. Thus, few respondents formulating
an ‘envision’ challenge does not mean that this
phase is always installed and running smoothly.

CX professionals in companies with lower CX
maturity are struggling with the translation of
their CX design into operational reality. At the
start of the development of a CX program, all
processes still need to be installed in the
company. The search for optimal data collection,
adequate technologies, accurate data integration
etc. is highly relevant at the first stages of CX
maturity. The successful operationalisation of the
CX strategy is a necessary hurdle a company
with low CX maturity needs to take.
Each challenge has its time…
The biggest challenge for CX professionals in
companies with higher CX maturity or more
developed VoC programs (implying more
advanced operationalisation) is to engage
people to deliver CX beyond the manual.
Feedback is collected and spread in the
company, bringing together all departments and
the (top) management in order to commit to CX
proves to be difficult. At the later stage in the
journey towards CX maturity, CX professionals
struggle with employees lacking the will, the skills,
or the enablement to deliver the desirable
customer experience. A key issue here is the lack
of EX measurement.

A CX programme can only succeed if it follows the four basic steps below. Your company should get actionable insights from the Voice of
the Customer. You must take insight-driven action in order to create new customer value. This value must be proven to the organisation in
order to be properly captured. Finally, the captured value must be communicated to everyone involved. If you follow these steps, you will
consistently create more value, and establish a sustainable programme. Join the webinar to get cases, examples and inspirations.
The Virtuous CX Value Cycle
C R E A T E V A L U E
Based on the outputs of the Core, the
organization can create value. Key
opportunities are:
• Close the loop to improve CX
• Use insights to drive sales
• Improve operational efficiency
C O R E S Y S T E M
The core system at the heart of the
framework delivers actionable
insights through:
• Systems
• Metrics
• Processes
C O M M U N I C A T E V A L U E
Once captured, value needs to be
communicated in order to inspire more
people
• Ensure people are Willing, Skilled and
Able
• Showcase success and ROI
• Bring other departments and senior
management on board
C A P T U R E V A L U E
It isn’t enough to create the value, we must also
capture it, to effectively prove it to the
organization. We need to:
• Show the value of CX and recommendation
• Develop a pragmatic ROI & Business Model
• Implement the right KPIs
About us
Futurelab – CX, Just get it done.
Futurelab is the European customer experience (CX) consultancy. For more than 15 years we help our clients understand the needs of their
customers, develop better customer experience, and draw profit from customers’ loyalty and word of mouth.
Why work with us? You know your organisation needs to become better at CX and EX. But things aren't moving – not fast enough, not at all,
or even backwards. We help you to JUST GET IT DONE.
We put the human in the middle. What does this mean? We don’t come in with a ready set of spreadsheets and start pushing around. We
jointly look at all stakeholders and their needs. The customers, of course – but also the executive suite that you need to convince of your
initiatives. And the colleagues that “are already over-run and cannot handle another strategic project”. Because all of these stakeholders
have something in common. Their three scarcest resources are the same – Time, Money, and Engagement.
Here’s how we help:
Time - We have done it before and can help you make fast and sensible choices. We have best practice, and we have worst practice
examples. We have experienced it all and have the fitting models, frameworks, examples – and stories. Whether you need to develop a
global CX strategy and fast-track it into roll-out, or you need an up and running VoC programme in a few weeks, we can help you make
decisions quickly as we have fitting scenarios for you based on our experience.
Money - We are pragmatic. We focus on what matters. We identify the quick wins just as much as the big wins. We help you kickstart small,
clearly defined projects without a massive preparation or large investments upfront. We have the models to help you demonstrate Return on
Experience. We also will help you demonstrate the right kind of ROI to your executives – so they can see it fit their agenda.
Engagement - We help you get momentum and positive energy into your CX programme. We know you need to win the heads as well as
the hearts of your executives and your frontline. We can together win their hearts with great stories and culture programmes. We can win
over their heads by showcasing successes and demonstrating ROX – even before starting the project We will help you to define the right
KPI’s to drive the change that is needed. And most of all - we help you engage your customers (CX) and your staff (EX) in great new ways.

CX challenges: a snapshot p. 14 Envision p. 17 Integrate p. 19 Engage p. 22 Improve p. 25 The journey towards CX maturity p. 27 Each challenge has its time p. 32 The CCC Framework p. 33 About Futurelab p. 34 Table of contents Executive Summary p. 3 About the survey p. 6 The questionnaire p. 7 The survey participants p. 9 CX maturity assessment p. 10 Survey results p. 13 29/04/2020 2.
  • 3. 29/04/2020 3. Executive summary A B O U T T H I S D O C U M E N T We wanted to take the pulse of the CX community about their challenges. In this report we summarise your feedback and offer solutions. In response to your pain points we have defined a few clear steps that every CX professional should take. We have identified them per stage of maturity as a guiderail for you. Finally there is the CCC-model, a very concrete framework that should drive your day to day operations. No CX programme can be successful without these key steps of creating value. F U T U R E L A B O B S E R V AT I O N S We see (not just in this survey) that many organisations overestimate their CX maturity – if you don’t know where you are it is very hard to know where to go. Assess your maturity correctly! Many CX Managers indicate that they are not sure their role actually has impact – up to the point that they feel that their department is there for cosmetic purposes only. We see that almost all CX Professionals suffer from the same problems, but feel that their company is specifically behind. Rest assured, we all feel your pain.
  • 4. 29/04/2020 4. Executive summary M O S T P E R T I N E N T C X C H A L L E N G E S Engaging people with CX (41%): CX professionals struggle with engaging all departments and the (top) management to actively show their commitment towards CX. Making CX design a reality (39%): The biggest challenge is showing the return on investment in CX, closely followed by the establishment of data collection processes and related technology implementation. T H E J O U R N E Y T O W A R D S C U S T O M E R C E N T R I C I T Y Companies without a defined CX role have lower CX maturity. Operationalisation of CX is the main issue for companies with lower CX maturity, as well as for professionals who are new in their job. Companies with higher CX maturity struggle with engaging employees and management and delivering CX beyond the manual. Professionals with more developed VoC programmes struggle with implementing customer-driven improvements.

  • 6. 29/04/2020 6. About the Survey Online survey during February and March 2020 Questionnaire included on the following pages Reached out to Customer Experience responsibles 144 CX professionals recruited via LinkedIn Survey question: What are the main obstacles on the path towards improved customer experience (CX)?

The operationalisation of CX in the company is a challenging process requiring activities in many different areas (see next slide). There is a lack of support in the implementation. It does not necessarily make things any easier that CX programs are complex and difficult to understand for people who are not trained in such projects. ROI is the main KPI of a company -- Show to your boss that you're making money is a contributing factor of developing a CX mindset in the organisation.

  • 24. 29/04/2020 24 ENGAGE - Get your people to deliver CX beyond the manual The biggest challenge is to engage the whole company to actively show their commitment towards CX. CX professionals struggle with people lacking skills, will, or enablement to deliver good customer experience.

Stories bring it all to life, instead of numbers. 1 . G AT H E R C U S T O M E R S T O R I E S Often your employees know better than anybody else what is going well or not so well in the interaction with the customers.

  • 35. 29/04/2020 35 The answer to the question “What is your biggest challenge” is different from the answer to the question “Why is it such a challenge”. For instance, if it is felt like a challenge to engage other departments, the reason for this might not be because these other people are unwilling, but because they do not feel any urge to be engaged. This might be because there is no real customer strategy, or no CX related KPIs, no communication about the program, no visual impact etc. Perception of ‘biggest CX challenge’ is always subjective Sometimes the most relevant phases are not felt/formulated as a challenge. Very few respondents formulated an ‘envision’ challenge. During the envision phase typically support is needed from the top management. Without support, this phase might not even start and the CX responsible will focus on other things. And once this support is given, this phase might go fairly easy. Thus, few respondents formulating an ‘envision’ challenge does not mean that this phase is always installed and running smoothly.
  • 36. 29/04/2020 36 CX professionals in companies with lower CX maturity are struggling with the translation of their CX design into operational reality. At the start of the development of a CX program, all processes still need to be installed in the company. The search for optimal data collection, adequate technologies, accurate data integration etc. is highly relevant at the first stages of CX maturity. The successful operationalisation of the CX strategy is a necessary hurdle a company with low CX maturity needs to take. Each challenge has its time… The biggest challenge for CX professionals in companies with higher CX maturity or more developed VoC programs (implying more advanced operationalisation) is to engage people to deliver CX beyond the manual. Feedback is collected and spread in the company, bringing together all departments and the (top) management in order to commit to CX proves to be difficult. At the later stage in the journey towards CX maturity, CX professionals struggle with employees lacking the will, the skills, or the enablement to deliver the desirable customer experience. A key issue here is the lack of EX measurement.
  • 37. 29/04/2020 37 A CX programme can only succeed if it follows the four basic steps below. Your company should get actionable insights from the Voice of the Customer. You must take insight-driven action in order to create new customer value. This value must be proven to the organisation in order to be properly captured. Finally, the captured value must be communicated to everyone involved. If you follow these steps, you will consistently create more value, and establish a sustainable programme. Join the webinar to get cases, examples and inspirations. The Virtuous CX Value Cycle C R E A T E V A L U E Based on the outputs of the Core, the organization can create value. Key opportunities are: • Close the loop to improve CX • Use insights to drive sales • Improve operational efficiency C O R E S Y S T E M The core system at the heart of the framework delivers actionable insights through: • Systems • Metrics • Processes C O M M U N I C A T E V A L U E Once captured, value needs to be communicated in order to inspire more people • Ensure people are Willing, Skilled and Able • Showcase success and ROI • Bring other departments and senior management on board C A P T U R E V A L U E It isn’t enough to create the value, we must also capture it, to effectively prove it to the organization.
