What is DISC? How can we use? Know ourselves and ours co-workers?
Story base on the book "taking flight"- Merrick Rosenberg, Daniel Silvert.
Why do companies need to manage the entire customer experience? New analysis reveals that the entire customer journey - the series of interactions with a brand - is more important than any single touchpoint experience. Leading companies identify and effectively manage a few "key journeys." When companies perfect managing the entire customer journey, they reap significant benefits—including enhanced customer and employee satisfaction, reduced customer churn, increased revenue, lower costs, improved organizational collaboration, and competitive advantage. Presented at the Harvard Business Review webinar. For more on customer decision journeys: http://mckinseyonmarketingandsales.com/topics/customer-decision-journey

3. Slide 3 Customer Requirements Objectives Identify the customer in order to listen and document the Voice of the Customer (VOC) messages. Perform KANO Analysis in order to classify customer requirements. Translate VOCs into Critical Customer Requirements (CCRs). Create output measures (Critical to Quality, CTQ) from CCRs. Translate VOBs to measures that are Critical to Process (CTP). Key Topics Voice of the Customer Defined Step 1: Develop a Customer-Focused Business Strategy Step 2: Listening to the VOC Step 3: Translating the VOC to CCRs Step 4: Developing Measures and Indicators
4. Slide 4 Exploring Our Values Exercise - Part I Describe and rank what you think is really valued by your company
12. Slide 7 New Measures Arise When New Questions Are Asked New measures, and new behaviors, require that we ask new questions Do questions trigger actions? If we ask questions about outputs not inputs, we get a lot of focus and measures on outputs If we ask questions about budgets, we measure budgets How many of our questions are focused on process and service quality? How many of our questions are focused on causes and inputs versus results and outputs?
13. Slide 8 Imagine you are the General Manager of a very successful movie theatre chain with many employees. You will be out of the country for three months and have asked your staff to fax you a weekly report on Monday morning. What information/metrics would you like to see in that fax? Theatre Exercise (Part 1)
14. Slide 9 Theatre Exercise (Part 2) You are headed to the movies with some friends… The movie you would like to see is playing at several movie theatres in the area. All are about equidistant from your home. What criteria do you use to decide which theatre to attend?
15. Slide 10 Who Is Your Customer? Define products or services provided to the customer Identify the related process External customers pay our bills Internal customers use our outputs as their inputs to achieve our business objectives and ultimately satisfy external customers
16. Slide 11 Maximizing Customer Value Delivery Customer (CTD) Cycle Time Supplier Need Price Do (CTC) Cost Quality (CTQ) Defects Maximizing customer value = close the Need/Do gap
17. Slide 12 What Is “Voice of the Customer”? “Voice of the Customer” (VOC) is the expression of customer needs and desires May be specific – “I need delivery within 3 days” May be ambiguous – “Deliver faster” The VOC can be compared to internal data (“Voice of the Process”) to assess our current process performance or process capability. To be useful in a process improvement project we often need to work with the customer to understand the “Ambiguous” and make it “Specific”
18. Slide 13 Who Are the Customers? Who are they? Defined as: “Any person or organization that receives a product or service (Output) from the work activities (Process)” Those whose needs must be met for this process to be successful. Types of “customers”: External: Individuals or organizations outside of your business who are usually associated with paying money for your products and services Internal: Colleagues who receive products, services, support or information from your process – i.e. Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Marketing, Regulatory: Any government agency that has standards the process or product must conform to – i.e. ACCC, EPA, FDA, Which customer? Customers can often be logically aggregated into groups or segments (not all customers should be treated equally)
19. Slide 14 Why Is VOC Important? They “pay the bills,” so it’s important to understand their needs: Customer behavior is a key input to strategy and process design Ultimately, all the value driver “levers” get pulled by an external customer They define the “playing field” They serve as the referee for all competitors They define what is a “value-added” activity or service They are always right… Even if we cannot meet their needs, or do so profitably. To be more profitable, you have to convince your customers to… Buy more of your product / service Revenue Growth Pay more for your product / service Economic Value Add Serve their needs more efficiently Economic Value Add (cost reduction)
20. Slide 15 Who are Your Customers? (project focus)
21. Slide 16 How Do Our Customers Communicate with Us? Buyer Behavior Outbound Communications Research Market Intelligence Customers Informal/Formal Transactions Inbound Communications Casual Contact Types of Voices Complaints Compliments Product returns Product/service sales preferences Contract cancellations Market share changes Customer defections/acquisitions Customer referrals Closure rates of sales calls What other customer voices could you or do you use in your business? Sources of Customer Voices
22. Slide 17 Customers Define “Quality” Timeliness Accuracy Easeof Use Aesthetics Flexibility & Options You must understand what the customers of your process care about! Customer Price & Cost
23.
24. Slide 19 1. Gather the Voice of the Customer (VOC):Customer Segmentation The first step in gathering the VOC, is customer segmentation. All customers are not created equal, and do not create equal value Avoid “squeaky wheel” syndrome If customers aren’t segmented, it may prove impossible to get a single “voice,” and the multiple voices may lead in opposite directions. The Greatest Value Can Come From a Small Portion of Your Customer Base Total Customers Total Value

Identify ways to segment each customer. Potential Segments Customers Product/Service 1. Gather the Voice of the Customer (VOC):Customer Segment Matrix
27. Slide 22 1. Gather the Voice of the Customer (VOC):Customer Segmentation Worksheet Customer Internal or External? Segments/Description Priority
42. Slide 24 1. Gather the Voice of the Customer (VOC):Communicating with Customers No matter what source of customer information is used, customer communication has three basic parts: 1. Asking the right questions 2. Asking questions in the right way 3. Understanding the answers
43. Slide 25 Communicating with Customers:Interviews Purpose: To learn about a specific customer’s point of view on service issues, product/service attributes, and performance indicators/measures. Types of Interviews Characteristics of Information Needed
44. Slide 26 Communicating with Customers :Surveys Purpose To measure the needs – or the importance and performance of – a product, service, or attribute across an entire segment or group of segments; furnishes quantitative data. Uses To efficiently gather a considerable amount of information from a large population To conduct analysis that will result in data with statistical validity and integrity To measure as-is conditions and drivers To measure change and causality The Survey Process Review the survey objectives. Determine the appropriate sample of the population. Identify the specific areas of desired information. Write draft questions and determine measurement scales. Design the survey. Test the individual questions and the total survey against the objectives. Validate the questions and the survey (pilot). Finalize the survey. Survey Options Mail Personal Telephone
45. Slide 27 Communicating with Customers :Focus Groups Purpose Organize information from the collective point of view of a group of customers that represent a segment Uses To clarify and define customer needs To gain insights into the prioritization of needs To test concepts and get feedback Sometimes as a next step after customer interviews or a preliminary step in a survey process Typically composed of 7 to 13 participants who share characteristics that relate to the focus group topic Participants will be asked to thoroughly discuss very few topics
46.
47. Are specific & measurable (and the method of measurement is specific)
52. Slide 30 Activity: Defining Customer Requirements OBJECTIVE: Practice Defining Customer Requirements AGENDA: Assign team roles Facilitator introduces tool and leads team through next steps. 3. Have 2-3 members share customer comments they’ve heard. 4. Translate comments into - Key Issue - Requirements 5. Discuss next steps to validate customer requirements. Prepare to report. TIME: 15 minutes
53. Slide 31 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Getting Value from VOC Data Making sense of qualitative data is an iterative process It involves interpretation and prioritization Often requires follow-up with additional research Useful tools: Affinity Analysis Tree Diagrams
54. Slide 32 Theme 1 Theme 3 Need 1 Need 2 Need 7 Theme 2 Need 3 Need 4 Need 8 Need 5 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Affinity Diagrams The first step in getting value from customer data is organizing it in a way that will reveal themes An affinity diagram is a good tool for this purpose since it organizes language data into related groups Gather ideas from interview transcripts, surveys, etc. Generate customer need statements on cards or sticky notes Group the cards to find the “affinity” Label the groups of cards
55. Moves team from high-level customer needs to greater detail in order to define requirements A tool for breaking broad process steps or product features into greater detail Helps organize needs by level of detail Slide 33 Tree Diagram Affinity Diagrams 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Tree Diagrams
56. Slide 34 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Tree Diagrams Product/Service Customer Requirement Tertiary Need Secondary Need Customer Requirement Primary Need Customer Requirement Customer Requirement
57. Slide 35 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Tree Diagram Example: Pizza Whole wheat Crust Unbleached flour No cheese Low-fat mozzarella Cheese Customer wants “healthy choices” Meats Toppings Low-fat white cheddar Sauce Vegetables Additives Other ingredients Spices Oil
58. Slide 36 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Determining “Critical Customer Requirements” From Requirements to “Quality” A customer’s perception of value & performance represents their view of the “quality” of a product or service Their basis for evaluation is how well their requirements have been met Evaluations are also influenced by their “expectations” Quality = Actual Performance - Expectations All requirements are not created equal … Customers weight their requirements differently The most important customer requirements become those CTQs. Critical To Quality Requirements Represent a customer desire that must be met Have a strong correlation to the “buying decision” Often form the basis for competitor comparison
59. Slide 37 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:CCR Selection Methods 10.0 9.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 5.0 4.0 Price Brand Image Correct Invoice Inventory Turns On-time Delivery Warranty Returns % Complete Order Proximity to Customer Product Offering Breadth Special Order Lead Time New Product Development Relationship Management Ask Customers Fast and specific feedback However, they may not be completely honest with you Key Buying Factor Analysis Formal customer survey Force ranks the requirements Kano Analysis Good “first cut” technique to evaluate relative importance of customer requirements Segments by “type of quality”/customer expectation House of Quality (Quality Function Deployment) Exciting Quality Expected Quality Normal Quality
60. Slide 38 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:CTQ Key Buying Factor Analysis 10.0 9.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 5.0 4.0 Price Brand Image Correct Invoice Inventory Turns On-time Delivery Warranty Returns % Complete Order Proximity to Customer Product Offering Breadth Special Order Lead Time New Product Development Relationship Management CTQ Importance Company Comp 1 Comp 2 Comp 3 Explanation: Yellow bars show relative importance of key buying factors to customers; Red line rates company performance against key buying factors; Other lines rate competitors’ performance against key buying factors
61. Slide 39 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Kano Model The Kano Model is helpful in understanding different types of customer needs. There is much risk in blindly fulfilling customer needs without a good understanding of the types of requirements. Without this understanding, a team risks: Providing superfluous quality Wowing the customer in one area, and driving them to competitors in another Focusing only on what customers say, and not what they think or believe
62. Slide 40 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:The Kano Model Classifies Customer Needs Dissatisfiers– Basic requirements. Expected features or characteristics of a product or service. These needs are typically “unspoken”. If these needs are not fulfilled, the customer will be extremely dissatisfied. Satisfiers – Performance requirements. Standard characteristics that increase or decrease satisfaction by their degree (cost/price, ease of use, speed). These needs are typically “spoken”. Delighters – Unexpected features or characteristics that impress customers and earn you “extra credit”. These needs are also typically “unspoken”.
63. Slide 41 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Collecting the VOC based on Kano analysis Dissatisfiers (Typically Unspoken) – Gather them using 1-on-1 interviews and focus groups The discussion points are not well established – often not discussed at all unless there’s a reason to – but there is often consensus after the fact For example, in a hotel bathroom, it’s the provision of soap, towels, toilet paper, hot water – none of which are ordinarily worthy of comment unless they are missing! Satisfiers (Typically Spoken) – Gather them using surveys (phone, email, etc.) The discussion points are well established – it’s the issues that advertisements address, it’s the basis of discussions with our neighbors For example, in a hotel, it’s how long the wait is to check-in, availability of a coffee maker in the room, Internet access, size of the TV, etc.
64. Slide 42 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Collecting the VOC (cont.) Delighters (Typically Unspoken) – Gather them using carefully orchestrated focus groups preceded by 1-on-1 and small group interviews to establish several bases for further expansion The specific points of discussion are not known (except in the most general sense in some cases) For example, being able to check into a hotel by swiping the credit card you used for guaranteeing the reservation – one swipe of the card, one signature on the surface of the computer monitor and your room key is issued.
65. Slide 43 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:The Difficulty in Collecting Delighters Very often, Delighters are a unique combination that is really the intersection of: Demand on the part of the customer for products that s/he is unaware could be made available, and Supply technologists are unaware of possibilities for product innovations So, the customer doesn’t know it is possible, and the business doesn’t know there is a demand Note: Delighters are not just added features that the customer did not expect. They must truly be of value to the customer.
66. Slide 44 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Getting to Delighters In spite of the difficulties, there are ways to spur creative thinking – sometimes it is as simple as well-planned focus groups that have a balance of: Early adopters: progressive individuals who are able to appreciate the impact on their lives of alternative services, or combinations of services/products not offered now, and Open minded technologists with an understanding of the possibilities, both of specific concepts as well as combinations Work with customers and suppliers to explore where there might be matches of the customers’ needs to the suppliers’ potential range of product offerings
67. Slide 45 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Uses of The Kano Model Validate that some of the needs spoken by the customer during the interviews and focus groups are truly Critical To Quality requirements that will have an impact on customer satisfaction or a purchase decision Determine if there were some potential requirements that were not explicitly stated by customers Test out some of the team’s ideas for differentiation Determine whether some of the features that existed in previous offerings were and still are valued by the customer
68. Slide 46 Negative Question Answers Don’t Like Don’t Care Normal Like Satisfier Delighter Delighter – Like Dissatisfier – – – Normal Positive Question Answers Dissatisfier – – – Don’t Care – – – – Don’t Like 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Applying the Kano Table to Develop CTQs For each potentialneed, ask the customer to assess: How would they feel if the need WAS addressed? (Positive) How would they feel if the need WAS NOT addressed? (Negative) The customer has four choices in response to each question: 1. I’d like it 2. It is normally that way (that feature is expected) 3. I don’t care 4. I wouldn’t like it Based on the answers to the “positive” and “negative” questions, use the table to determine the type of need

72. Slide 50 2. Translating VOC into CTQs:Advantages of Classifying Critical Needs Identify the Critical To Quality requirements which have the greatest influence on customer satisfaction. Prioritizing requirements for future development. It is not very useful to invest in improving Dissatisfier requirements that are already at a satisfactory level. Performing trade-offs. If two customer needs cannot be met simultaneously due to technical or financial reasons, knowing the type of customer need can help make compromises that minimize the impact on customer satisfaction.
73. Slide 51 3. Convert CTQs into KPOVs Once the Critical To Quality requirements of the product have been defined, they must be converted into Key Process Output Variables for the process The process is a function of converting inputs (Xs) into outputs (KPOVs or Ys) Y = f(X1, X2, X3,…Xn) We must first define all of the Ys that our process must satisfy, in order to use the DMAIC philosophy to focus on the correct Xs to improve the process
74. Slide 52 3. Convert CTQs into KPOVs:Getting to KPOVs (Big “Y”s) KPOVs Y1 Y2 Y3 Yn VOC - Voice of the Customer VOB - Voice of the Business CTQ - Critical To Quality Requirements CBR - Critical Business Requirements Key Process Output Variables come from two sources: The Critical to Customer Requirements (Voice of the Customer - VOC) The Critical to Business Requirements (Voice of the Business – VOB) These two sources come together to develop the Big “Y” outputs that the process must meet Customer Customer CTQ’s CCR’s VOC VOC Issues Issues ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Business Business VOB CBR’s VOB CBR’s Issues Issues ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________

77. Slide 55 4. Create a SIPOC map Once the KPOVs have been identified, a SIPOC map can be created Supplier Input Process Output Customer (SIPOC) map Suppliers – All internal and external suppliers to the process Inputs – All inputs to the process i.e. material, forms, information, etc. Process – One block representing the entire process Outputs – All outputs for both internal and external customers Customers – All internal and external customers to the process A high-level SIPOC map helps to visualize the Voice of the Customer and begin to see the relationships between the Outputs and the Inputs of the process
78. Slide 56 4. Create a SIPOC map:The SIPOC map Go upstream to the process steps which most impact the Output and determine the Key Process Input Variables (KPIVs) which affect the KPOV’s. Try to use leading measures instead of lagging measures – if lagging, then close/reduce amount of lag. REQUIREMENTS REQUIREMENTS P S I O C Suppliers Inputs Process Outputs Customers MEASURES MEASURES PROCESS MAP
79. Slide 57 4. Create a SIPOC map: Leading and Lagging Measures Leading Measures tell the need to adjust process before the fact. Evaluate inputs and adjust downstream process to reflect results of evaluation. Lagging Measures inform about process performance and the need for adjustment after the fact. Some close lagging measures are able to give immediate feedback to the process – small likelihood of providing inconsistent service. Evaluate results of process step and feed information upstream. Some long lagging measures take so long to give feedback that decision-making is not timely and not well defined – greater likelihood of providing inconsistent service. Evaluate results of process output and feed information upstream.
85. Don’t try to establish the order of the steps (yet)6. Arrange the process steps in sequence, discuss steps in detail to clarify the order and what the step output is. Draw lines and arrows indicating flow. Indicate key decision points with a and label the paths for each. 7. Validate the process with a “walk through" of the actual process. Add any missed steps, decision points or rework loops. Action Step Y Check Start Decision Stop N Action Step
86. Slide 61 Activity: Mapping OBJECTIVE: Develop a Process Map AGENDA: Assign team roles Select one process to map 3. Define the process boundaries - start and stop 4. Identify the outputs and customers 5. Discuss customer requirements of performance 6. Identify inputs and suppliers 7. Brainstorm 5-10 process steps and arrange steps in sequence 8.
