THE EXPERIENCE MINDSET: THE FLYWHEEL OF GROWTH

For years, many companies have operated under the illusion that positive customer satisfaction scores and moderately good growth rates were enough to conceal a lurking issue: the silent suffering of the employee experience (EX) in the relentless pursuit of customer experience (CX) perfection.

It’s true; you can have good CX and a subpar EX and still manage to grow. You can even maintain a state of “good enough” for both EX and CX and eke out growth. But to truly soar, to break through the limits of the status quo, you must do more. You must enhance both in tandem, nurturing the symbiotic relationship between employee and customer experience, where both flourish and propel each other to new heights.

In this groundbreaking presentation, led by the renowned expert in sales, customer experience, and revenue growth, Tiffani Bova, you will discover how to unlock a new paradigm of growth from the inside out. Drawing from the insights encapsulated in her Wall Street Journal best-selling book, The Experience Mindset, and groundbreaking global research, Tiffani will guide you on the path to harmonizing these two essential dimensions.

This is your chance to defy convention, to revolutionize your organization, and to embark on a journey toward remarkable and exceptional experiences and growth. With Tiffani Bova as your guide, you’re not just pushing boundaries; you’re shattering them, forging a path that challenges the status quo and leads to a future where the fusion of EX and CX accelerates explosive growth.

You’ll get actionable information and advice on how to put a new operating philosophy into action, including:

-How to identify and eliminate the unconscious tension between internal efforts focused on employees and customers that prevents organizations from leveraging both to create a flywheel of momentum.
-What are the biggest challenges identified by both employees and the C-Suite to company growth.
-What aspects of the employee experience have the greatest impact on customer experience?
-How companies can, will, and are designing effective people-centered growth strategies and technology game-changers such as artificial intelligence.
-Where to begin to maximize organizational efficiency across people, process, technology and culture [PPTC] in a more balanced and intentional way.
