On January 11th, 2023, Research World published Phase 5's article, "Putting Customers First - Using Research to Help Create a Customer-Centric Organisation". Written by Phase 5 Partner Andreas Noe and Phase 5 Client Tanya Fowler (Head of Customer Experience, FCT), this piece describes how thoughtfully designed research can shed light on the customer journey, enabling an organization to become more customer-centric, and to make strategic changes that will create a sustainable competitive advantage.
Noe and Fowler are speaking from experience on this topic, as the two worked together closely on a multi-phased project in 2020 & 2021. It began with a qualitative study of FCT customers, followed by customer journey mapping, followed by design thinking sessions by a joint cross-functional team that transformed findings into potential solutions. In their summary, you'll also learn about how the Customer Victory Circle technique was applied to select and prioritize ideas in order to allocate limited resources.
This work contributed not only to FCT's success, but also their recognition in the industry as they were awarded a 2021 North American Customer-Centricity Award.
