Workshop I

A Master Class In Building, Deploying, And Driving Value From Your ‘Single View of Customer’.

Stanford Swinton, CEO and Founder, NPSx by Bain & Company

Many companies are trying to build a ‘single view of customer’ but not many agree on what that means, and creating a customer database is only half the battle. This workshop will explore the critical components of a successful SVoC program from defining the SVoC taxonomy to powering use cases and predictive analytics.

Workshop II

How Can Market Research Stay Relevant in Today's Fast Paced, Technology-led World of CX?

Jeremy Griffiths, VP Consulting & Insights & Corinna Holm, Senior Research Executive, InMoment

The goal of any CX programme is to drive change and improve business performance. For most organisations improvements are needed across the business; from launching new products, to optimising customer journeys or touchpoints. As CX practitioners, we have the power to use technology to build our own surveys, run our own analysis and integrate with other data sources to make decisions. We can do all of this at pace and therefore, is now the time to ask if Market Research is still relevant?” At InMoment, we firmly believe the answer is YES! It is our belief that the disciplines of Market Research are as relevant now as they have always been and in this workshop we will explore why a close partnership between CX and Market Research will drive better business outcomes.

In this workshop, Derek will share best practices about how to operationalise and embed experience improvement through swift and decisive actions that deliver value, meaning that everyone in your organisation is able to see improvement and will be inspired to take action to drive positive change. He will also explore how to ‘get there first’ by anticipating and solving client problems early.

Workshop IV

Building Inclusive Intelligence Into Your Brand: Inclusive CX Design and Innovation For, With and by Diverse Consumers

Christine Hemphill, Founder and Managing Director, Open Inclusion

Only 4 percent of businesses are focused on making offerings inclusive of disability. Would you like to make your business more valuable by providing customer experiences that are more consistently inclusive to the 1 in 5 people in our community who have permanent additional needs, while also supporting the temporary or situational needs that may impact the experience of all your customers from time to time? In this workshop Christine will help you identify some very practical approaches to build momentum and value through inclusive design. As an inclusive CX researcher and strategist, Christine will share approaches you can adopt and adapt to suit your brand ambitions that are grounded in your current inclusive brand experiences. This approach combines top down and bottom up perspectives – using progressive enhancement (progress over perfection) to prioritise and address current experience gaps, while in parallel assessing more extreme user’s unmet needs to identify innovation opportunities for brand differentiation that may be needed by some and appreciated by many.

Driving Growth with Customer Journey Management

Mike Renzon, Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder, inQuba

‘CX Leaders Have The Opportunity And The Responsibility To Drive Growth’ Forrester April 2021 – however, the disconnect between C-Suites and CX teams continues. CEOs care about sustainable growth, value creation, new customers, retention, and market share while CX teams care about NPS, loyalty, CSAT, CES, and customer sentiment. Given this misalignment, CX programmes can be deprioritised in favor of bringing in new customers, selling new products, and entering new markets. This workshop demonstrates how real-time customer journey management can be systematically applied to driving growth strategies, making the CX team the growth heroes!
