Foco en la Experiencia del Cliente. Qué, por qué y cómo de este paradigma estratégico y organizacional, con un epílogo sobre la economía circular
Abstract
Under the complexity and uncertainties of actual markets, and as never before, customers are disrupting the business game from the outside, transforming the way organizations/functional areas operate, and how people think and act. Because of this, it is necessary to focus on customer’ long-term value, new organizational models, changing role of the Business/Marketing Officer, out-of-the-box capabilities, and digital technologies integration, for which Customer Experience (CE) operation levels are required to be raised in many more organizations. As a consequence, a link-to-value perspective on CE operation must be instilled at company-wide, focusing on the customer model/journey and on a new mindset, needed to implement an eco-friendly business environment. It is studied CE, customer long-term value and related matters, proposing ideas for a better implementation in firms of every industrial sector and size. The hypothesis of this work -which was corroborated- suggests that it is possible to enhance company results, performance and competitiveness raising its CE operation level and implementing an ecofriendly business environment. It was used a qualitative methodology with a bibliographical, exploratory and descriptive study, and a not experimental and transversal design.
