Migliorare la customer experience attraverso la responsabilizzazione dei dipendenti

NOTA AICEX: il miglioramento della customer experience in ogni azienda passa necessariamente attraverso miglioramento della responsabilizzazione dei dipendenti. Prima di tutto è però necessario comprendere l’attuale livello di empowerment cercando di comprendere se e come i dipendenti si sentano responsabilizzati in termini di CX.

I read an article last week on employee empowerment by Annette Franz. She reflected on the merits of employee empowerment and also provided excellent examples of how employers can improve the customer experience by empowering their employees; she sites examples from the likes of Ritz-Carlton, Hyatt and Diamond Resorts, to name a few. Before employers institute ways to improve employee empowerment, however, they need to understand the level of empowerment their employees currently experience. How do employers know if their employees feel empowered? An effective way is to simply ask them.

Come misurate l’Employee Engagement?

NOTA AICEX: gestire e misurare il coinvolgimento dei dipendenti diventa sempre più cruciale. Nickie Hawton ci mostra come disegnare ed utilizzare una survey di Employee Engagement.

One of my closest friends is a teacher, who is absolutely dedicated to the job and loves seeing young people thrive and learn. The school has an excellent academic reputation and a very strong sense of community. However, poor communication and insensitive people management over the past couple of years have meant that trust in the senior team and morale in the staffroom have plummeted and good, experienced teachers have left in their droves and taken jobs in other schools. Apart from a few stalwarts, most of the people who have made the school what it is will soon have left. Rebuilding the depth and strength of the previous team, if it can be achieved, will be costly – and take many years.

Il legame tra VoC e VoE

Nota Aicex: i dipendenti diventano sempre più importanti quando si parla di KPI e di programmi di Voice of the Customer. Esploriamo i legami tra Voice of the Customer e Voice of the Employee.

You’ll have seen from my previous articles that I’m keen to highlight the close relationship that exists between the Voice of the Employee (VoE) and the Voice of the Customer (VoC). In this article, I really want to demonstrate just how inextricably linked the two ‘voices’ are – in fact, in my view, they’re inseparable.

Many organisations continue to run separate VoE and VoC programmes. Often, they are conducted at different times and by different teams. What’s more, they’ll usually have entirely different objectives, and different KPIs against which outcomes are measured.

This is not necessarily a problem if such programmes are being run as a ‘point in time’ activity, where simple actions might be taken based on specific results. And it’s entirely understandable that many businesses take this approach, based on the historical reasoning that employees belong to HR and customers span other parts of the business such as sales, marketing and customer service.

Ispirazione per il service design

Nota Aicex: il service design mette l’utente di un servizio al centro. Creando una service journey si analizza il processo dal fornitore all’utente finale e si riesce ad avere un’idea di ciò che il servizio dovrebbe essere. L’articolo ci propone alcuni interessanti case studies.

Service design places the user of a service at the center. If you look at the process from supplier to end user as a service journey, you get an accurate picture of what your service design should look like. Read the most important advice and inspiring case studies here.

In our daily lives we avail of services constantly. When we check our online bank with our mobile phone, deliver our children at kindergarten or school, or when we book a flight to our next holiday destination, we use a service. Often we do not think about our increased consumption of services – mostly we do it only when something goes wrong or when we’ve been pleasantly surprised.
