We invited a CIO and a CMO from world-leading organisations to discuss how to overcome cultural resistance to CX and inspire real change – here’s what they had to say
Customer experiences can make or break brand loyalty, especially now that we live in an era of majority digital engagement. A lot of digital leaders know and understand this, but there’s one thing that’s holding them back from transforming the organisation’s CX approach: company culture.
We were joined by Jannik Devantier (updated: Director of Business Optimisation & Value Engineering, Sitecore) and Behdad Banian (Chief Marketing Officer, Ericsson) to discuss the impact culture has on CX adoption – and how to overcome it. From how to acquire boardroom buy-in to how to instigate wider organisational change, our speakers shared their own experiences of driving CX transformation.
