Customer-driven transformation in the Netherlands? The game is on!

Is your team already customer-driven to the max? Organizations are aware that a good customer experience can make the difference for them. But it is also becoming increasingly clear to most professionals in the Netherlands that providing an excellent customer experience is true top sport. Customer centricity is no longer soft and cute; it is seriously about the marbles.

Ultimate customer drive

Five stages to grow to ultimate customer-centricity

The gap between ambition and reality in terms of customer-centricity cannot be bridged in one fell swoop or within a year. It happens step by step with continuous attention to customer experience at different levels. Organizations go through five stages of customer centricity, with each stage having its own challenges. Five maturity stages can be distinguished:

  • Ignore: the organization is still at the very beginning of focusing on customer experience
  • Collect: the organization spends most of its time setting up and improving customer feedback measurements
  • Analyze: the organization has identified what is needed to improve the customer experience, but these efforts do not structurally lead to concrete customer-driven improvements
  • Collaboration: the organization has established processes and collaborations between departments that ensure that from insights the customer experience is structurally improved
  • Transform: the organization bases all decisions on insights from the customer experience, from the operational to strategic level

How do you advance a phase?
