Growing existing business with Customer Experience for TelcosStefan Moritz
Short deck introducing a major challenge of the Telco industry: The lost connection with customers and three drivers to move to a people-driven approach in order to unlock innovation and customer value to drive growth of existing business.
In this peer-review decision making generation, creating memorable customer experience is crucial. The experience you deliver to your customers cannot be just ‘good’. Good is no longer enough to retain customers but it has to be memorable!
It has to be so fantastic that your customers want to tell their friends and family (or even strangers in online community) and invite them to try your products or services.
Maya Angelou, an American author, poet, dancer, actress, and singer once said “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
10 Actions To Help Ensure Your Business Succeeds | BBH StockholmAlexander Niléhn
A BBH briefing on how to ensure your business succeeds in the time of COVID-19: How brands stay relevant, stay useful and emerge strong.
Please steal and share.
We at BBH Stockholm are stellar when it comes to designing digital products and services. But actually, the interface is just the tip of the iceberg and a lot happens under the surface before any sketch is drawn or line of code is written.
The service design handbook guides you to the tools and methods of improving customer experiences and leveraging brand value with seamless customer journeys. It shows how we can use customer journey understanding as a tool to empathise and find new opportunities to delight customers. We reveal our recipe for success for creating products and services that are not only desirable, but also make business sense and are feasible from an organisational and technical perspective.
This handbook also goes beyond the hard facts, and takes into account the ecosystem in which these services are built — the organisation. Design thinking, in other words creative problem solving through empathy and experimentation, requires a supportive organisational structure, agile leadership and a culture that encourages entrepreneurship and initiative.
We hope you enjoy reading our handbook as much as we enjoyed compiling it!

Harry Wallop, Feature Writer, Daily Telegraph
09.00 – 09.20 KEYNOTE ADDRESS
Building a beloved brand: A decade of disruption
Since its inception, Hotel Chocolat has never played by the rules of what people say a chocolate company should be. From its iconic
chocolate slabs and self-confessed “ridiculously” thick Easter eggs, the brand has succeeded in making chocolate exciting and
winning a loyal and growing fan base. Culminated in the accolade of being Britain’s “most advocated” brand, this is a phenomenal
success story with the customer at its heart.
Hear from the brand’s visionary and passionate founder about:
The three guiding principles that have driven the brand’s success: Originality, authenticity and ethics
Building a loyal community of chocolate fans: How to generate genuine advocacy
What ‘experience’ means to Hotel Chocolat: Sensory, immersive and emotionally engaging
Angus Thirlwell, CEO & Founder, Hotel Chocolat
09.20 – 09.25 Q&A Session with audience
09.25 – 09.45 In conversation with John Roberts, CEO of ao.com:
Winning the hearts of your customers by winning the happiness of your workforce
How do you nurture passionate and engaged colleagues who are empowered to do the right thing for customers?
This is not just a utopia but a reality for companies that are progressive enough to set the culture from the top.
Watch this inspiring interview with a retail leader who has embedded an ethos that promotes employee happiness
and fun. Don’t expect fluffy HR initiatives here, this is a story of compelling business leadership driving
customer-centric growth results. Essential viewing for CEOs or Directors wanting to engage their CEOs to
do the same for customers.
09.45 – 09.50 Q&A Session with audience
09.50 – 10.20 DEBATE
Does your organisation need a Chief Customer Officer?
The traditional retail board must adapt to stay relevant to today’s customers. In this interactive debate, we ask: is a CCO necessary to
driving customer focus within organisations? An unprecedented role within the majority of retailers, this session will seek to define what
the role should encompass and, crucially, question what difference it can make. Attend to compare the experiences of two retailers who
have taken different approaches to prioritising the customer at board level. By challenging existing organisational structures and roles, this
session will urge you to ask – are we leading in the right way?

11.20 – 11.50 Bring your open minds: A fresh perspective on customer experience
As you’re well aware, we are witnessing a disruption in the balance of power between brands and their customers. It’s more important than
ever that retailers invest in the technology to enable them to meet customer’s ever growing expectations, to avoid damaging their reputation,
improve the consumer experience they offer and gain better business insight to drive smarter operations. It’s important to recognise that
these trends are not occurring in retail alone. Technology and economic forces have changed the world and an obsession with winning,
serving, and retaining customers is the only possible response, across a plethora of industries.
This session invites you to gain insight from luminaries in other sectors, to hear what customer experience means to them, understand the
challenges they are seeing, and to get their insight on the trends they predict for the future.

The Holy Grail is delivering on a customer need before they even realise they have that need.

need to adapt to keep customers satisfied.
How shoppers really think: Understanding the psychological profiles of key customer demographics
Myth-busting: Getting past the stereotypes and understanding what really matters to customers
How consumer trends and demands are evolving: What can retailers expect next?

value for giving up their precious information?

session will bring alive the debate about how to balance data
management with maintaining good relationships with your

14.25 - 14.30 Q&A Session with audience Q&A Session with audience
14.30 - 15.00 PANEL DISCUSSION: From lip service to passionate
action – is retail taking Customer Experience far enough?
Retail is often cited as an industry leader for customer experience,
yet is it at risk of becoming complacent? Retail still lags behind
hospitality in having a service culture embedded in its DNA and
behind aviation for delivering customer-centric tech innovation.
How can retailers stop doing more of the same and achieve a truly
aspirational customer experience?
This session will question the cultural and operational barriers
to CX innovation and ask what really makes a difference to
customers? Attend if you want to be motivated and inspired by a
new vision for the future of customer experience in retail.

Turbo-charging the retail employee to better meet the needs of the consumer
Brought to you to by Retail Week & Manhattan Associates *
Chaired by: Alex Hamilton, Head of Research, Retail Week
This session will discuss the growing role of retail staff as part of the customer experience proposition. Don’t miss this unique chance to
debate how the customer-employee relationship is fast becoming a new front in the push for a better customer experience and what this
means for your business and the industry as a whole.
How is the retailer-customer relationship evolving and what part are retail employees playing in this dynamic?
How is the relationship between retail employee and customer changing across social, online and, of course, in-store?
What do customers want assistance with in-store with regards to customer experience/path to purchase? And how does this differ
by age group?
Do shoppers want a creative level of service that engages and excites? Or are they happy with a relationship with retail employees
that hinges purely on the transactional?
How can retailers up skill their workforce to better meet the needs of the modern day consumer?
What technologies are available to assist retail staff in providing next-level customer experience?
