Leading the Customer Experience: How to Chart a Course and Deliver Outstanding Results by Brad Cleveland
About the Book:
Many organizations and leaders struggle to respond effectively to fast-evolving customer expectations driven by innovations in products, services, and technologies such as AI and mobile.
Failing to build the necessary strategy, culture, and processes, they suffer from high costs, dissatisfied customers, and brand damage.
The mandate to get customer experience right is real and urgent. Leading the Customer Experience is a guide to shaping experiences that win loyalty and deliver outstanding business results.
It provides a bold, step-by-step approach that will get you and your team pointed in the right direction. And equipped to make sound decisions along the way.
Leading the Customer Experience is easy to understand and imminently practical. It is based on the author's extensive experience both as a founding partner of one of the world's most influential customer management organizations, and his work with B2B and B2C organizations in the private and public sectors.
The author's down-to-earth explanations cut through jargon and clutter, while stories and examples bring important principles to life. Leading the Customer Experience is relatable to anyone leading, managing, or aspiring to better understand the customer experience.
