Four competencies for great customer experience
Temkin Group has published results of their study on creating great customer experiences. Here are four core competencies for you to focus on:
- Purposeful leadership. Make sure your team leaders operate consistently based on clear, well-articulated values.
- Emplyee engagement with your goals. As we've explored in previous issues of Sparks, it's critical to get employee buy-in on core brand values.
- Compelling brand values. Make your values drive decisions about the way customers are treated.
- Customer connectedness. Offer easy ways for customers to provide insight—and integrate them throughout your organization.
Temkin has published a handy assessment to help you evaluate where you stand on these competencies. The better your competency, the greater your results.
