CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE FORUM 2008

Building a Great Customer Experience

"Customer experience is bigger than customer service."

- Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com

As businesses fight to differentiate themselves in a commoditising market, it is no surprise that 95% of senior business believe the Customer Experience is the next competitive battleground. But how do you build a great Customer Experience?

Who better to tell us than Colin Shaw, the Founder of Beyond Philosophy, the worlds thought leaders in Customer Experience. Colin is author of three international best selling books on the Customer Experience. We are pleased to announce he will be facilitating the day for us.

To open the day, Colin will discuss his first book "Building Great Customer Experience". He will reveal the Seven Philosophies for building a great Customer Experience. These are:

Great Customer Experiences are:
  1. A source of long-term competitive advantage.
  2. Created by consistently exceeding Customers physical and emotional expectations.
  3. Differentiated by focusing on stimulating planned emotions.
  4. Enabled through inspirational leadership, an empowering culture and empathetic people who are happy and fulfilled.
  5. Designed “outside in” rather than “inside out”.
  6. Revenue generating and can significantly reduce costs.
  7. The embodiment of the brand.

To make these philosophies "live" Colin will outline them with examples from everyday experiences. He will reveal the work Beyond Philosophy undertake with many of the leading brands across the globe, and the financial benefits this work brings. This is a rare chance to glimpse into the best practice around the globe.
