More information
Reading all the stories, one thing is for sure: the passion and enthusiasm for the Cx profession. Reading between the lines, the most successful companies are Customer-centric companies – businesses that innovate and deliver services targeted to specific customer needs. In the past, in a lot of cases these were (large) B2C companies. Nowadays, the most successful companies include all kinds of business, including B2B and B2G. For example, the Gulf Customer Experience Awards; take a look at the high scores of the excellent entries from B2G / governmental companies in the Middle East!
