Customer Experience Management:
The What, Why, and How of Delivering World-Class Experience

A Digital Clarity Group Master Class

Customer experience management (CEM) is the business mandate for 2015, driven by unrelenting demands of digital-savvy customers, prospects, and employees, and by competitive pressures to keep up with market leaders who are setting the pace. Strategies and tactics for managing the experience you deliver in organized, methodical and measureable ways are becoming essential. Content, technologies, processes, and practices are critical. How does it all fit together? What does a CEM initiative look like? How do you get started, and how do you get from here to there? How can you leverage what you already have? Where are the gaps? If your organization has CEM initiatives underway, how do you keep them on track and moving forward?

Get the answers to your questions about CEM by attending Digital Clarity Group’s Master Class in Customer Experience Management. In this one-day workshop, you’ll be immersed in the what, why, and how of managing the experience that you deliver to key audiences.

Agenda

The “What” of CEM

The first session provides foundational knowledge about experience management. We cover trends and factors in the larger business environment that make experience management a business imperative. We define the business practice of CEM, and we look at organizational scope – at the functions and stakeholders who should be part of your CEM strategies and tactics.

The “Why” of CEM

In this session, we drop down from the big picture of CEM and look at CEM through the lens of your own organization. We discuss the internal context for experience management, giving you guidance on making a compelling business case tailored to your organization. We show you how to set reasonable goals and objectives, and how to communicate them effectively.

The “How” of CEM

In this session, we focus on how an organization gets started with CEM, using proven frameworks and tools, from Voice of the Customer (VOC) to customer journey mapping. We provide guidance on assessing CEM readiness, using ten core competencies that organizations need for effective CEM. We discuss the use of roadmaps (streams and activities) and gap analyses (what your organization has and what it needs) to plot your path forward.

Closing session: Recap, take-aways, and action items

 

Who Should Attend?

DCG’s Master Class is designed for program leads and team members who are driving or participating in an experience management initiative within their organization. Participants are stakeholders and subject matter experts from marketing, IT, operations, sales, and support functions. Our Master Class delivers value in these scenarios:

  • In anticipation of an upcoming CEM initiative. Program leads and managers benefit by gaining insight into practices, processes, and strategies that will bias their efforts for success.
  • In the early stages of a new CEM initiative. Program leads and team members benefit by understanding the how-to’s of CEM practice, learning to speak a common language for effective communication, and ensuring that CEM teams start out on the same page.
  • As new team members join an existing CEM program. Our clients find that it’s more efficient to partner with DCG for CEM education than to interrupt their ongoing CEM initiatives to do the training themselves. New team members are ready to contribute quickly and effectively.
  • When new technologies for CEM are introduced. Contemporary technologies within the CEM footprint offer more capabilities and power than legacy products and solutions. Organizations often need to think about their CEM requirements and practices in new ways in order to leverage their investment in new systems. Attending DCG’s CEM Master Class gives program leads and teams an opportunity to think outside the old solutions box and put new technology to work in exciting and innovative ways.
