It is widely written about in business journals, seen as a top priority for corporations, and is commonly regarded as the path to future success. However, going beyond talking about Customer Experience to restructuring an entire company to provide ongoing services and products that truly delight customers is something that few companies have done truly well.

3 Proven Methods to Optimize Your 2018 Strategy and Goals through Culture and...Paige Pulaski
Change management is done through culture. Understanding the strengths of your human capital is imperative to fully implementing a plan and expecting successful execution. As you’re investing time, energy and budget into planning for 2018, you should be asking questions such as, “Do our current employees have the right skills? Do we have the right people in the right roles? If not, how do we remove these barriers?”
You’re checking the most important box – getting a plan in place that, when executed, will propel your organization to the next level. However, many organizations are failing to run the proper diagnostic before implementation to make sure all your assumptions are, in fact, true and in working order. Optimizing your plan is imperative, but execution in 2018 looks bleak without optimizing your workforce first.
In this webinar recording, Tanya Bakalov of BetterSkills, Inc. discusses how to achieve the most success with your plans for 2018 by giving three ways to fully assess the teams you’re trusting to execute.
You will learn how to:
>> Gauge the “do-ability” of your plan with your organization’s current skills
>> Delegate initiative assignments to use each employee in their best capacity
>> Motivate employees to be agents of change and dedicated to your organization’s success

7 Steps to Create a Competency-Based Training ProgramBizLibrary
Employee training is fluid, dynamic, and complex – which is why competency-based training is a more important strategic component of today’s employee learning strategies. Competency-based training links individual performance to the goals of the organization. A defined set of competencies for each role in your organization illustrates the behaviors, reinforces organization values, and provides the strategic direction employees need to achieve organizational objectives.
The document describes a customer experience program called CXP. The program includes 5 modules that will help organizations map their current customer experience, understand what drives customer loyalty through the customer experience lifecycle, create a new customer experience framework, test the new framework, and implement it. The program is spread over several weeks and also provides follow-up support to help with implementation challenges.
This document outlines the key steps for effective employer branding:
1. Understand the business needs and target competencies required to execute the business plan.
2. Define the main internal and external target groups based on business needs and critical competencies.
3. Fully understand the main and secondary target groups through research to identify what is attractive to them and how to effectively communicate.
4. Optimize the employer value proposition to include attributes that are attractive, true, credible, sustainable, and allow for long-term differentiation.
SQ Lecture Eleven - Change Management and Service LeadershipSQAdvisor
1) The chapter discusses the service profit chain and how marketing, operations, and human resources functions must be integrated. It also outlines four levels of service performance from losers to leaders.
2) Creating a leading service organization requires strong leadership to develop an effective culture and climate. Leaders define a coherent vision and strategies to succeed.
3) Future leadership will be more collaborative, using teams to harness collective genius. Leaders will empower others and drive innovation to help organizations succeed.
Building an effective change agent team requires carefully designing a change agent program with three key elements: thoughtful design, recruitment of strong personnel, and integration with target areas. The program must define roles like executers, experts, coaches, custodians, and controllers. It must also establish a reporting structure, which could be centralized with the change agents reporting directly to top management, or decentralized with change agents in their respective groups reporting to a central leader. Developing the best change agent team involves identifying credible candidates who are respected within the company, and making the role compelling to recruit strong performers who can drive change.
The document describes Impact, an action-learning program used by a global logistics company to accelerate strategic culture change. Impact involved three workshops over nine months for sales and operations managers, with a focus on customer insight, collaboration, leadership development, and innovation. Action learning projects generated measurable financial benefits and accelerated participants' leadership development. While Impact helped drive some cultural changes, its effects were limited due to the small number of participants. The program resulted in promotions for many participants but did not significantly improve retention, as high performers were still targeted by competitors. Overall, Impact achieved its goals of profitable growth, cultural change, and leadership development, though its effects on culture change were constrained by the number of participants.

Barista: Krystal Payne, she only waited on him once to decide to take ASL classes online
Customer: Ibby Piracha
"Maybe I spent like three or more hours on it," Krystal said.
For one order.
"If he's a regular, and I want to make that connection with my regulars, I should be able to at least ask him what he wants to drink," Krystal said.
Today, Krystal knows everything she needs to wait on Ibby.
To Krystal, it's no big deal, but to Ibby, who says navigating a hearing world is often frustrating, what Krystal did was a wonderful gesture that he will never forget. He even saved the note.
"It was something that was very inspirational, so I wanted to keep it in a frame," Ibby said.
Sometimes customer service gets a bad rap. It's often well-deserved. But there are those front-line workers who go above and beyond -- not for a tip or because the boss is watching -- but because kindness is who they are. And the customer all they care about.
"It's just something that really gave me genuine happiness," Ibby said.
Even now?
"Yeah, even now, still smiling."
