Samantha White - Managing Director | Head of Specialist Customer Care, Barclays

Working with vast customer demographics with varied needs, it is imperative to businesses today and in the future that the diversity required to empathise with customers stems beyond front-line agents in the call centre. This is something Sam and her team recognised and worked tirelessly to action within their organisation. Through a structured framework to ensure service is at the heart of everything they do, implementing regular 1:1’s and observing key moments within the service operation, Barclays NPS scores have seen a huge increase as a result.  

 

In this session, Sam will share the journey she has been on with her team to truly empathise with their customers, including key group discussion points to benchmark and apply these principles within your own organisation.

Lisa Fraser - Executive Director, User Experience Research, JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Matt Phillips - Executive Director, User Experience, JPMorgan Chase & Co

“We’re experiencing a high volume of calls at the moment”, “Your call is important to us”, “Did you know you can also visit our website?” – do these phrases sound familiar? Perhaps they are used on your own customer phone lines; however alongside ever-increasing expectations of efficient service, these industry-standard phrases are no longer sufficient to make your customers feel that you value their time.  

 

In this session, you will learn how to translate academic theories into 7 practical strategies that will allow you to enhance the waiting experience for customers curating happier customer journeys.

12:05 pm - 12:25 pm SUCCESS STORY: LEVERAGE CUSTOMER FACING AI TO CONTINUALLY IMPROVE YOUR DIGITAL SERVICE OFFERING AND BRING YOUR EMPLOYEES ON THE JOURNEY
Georgia Bradbury-Adams - Head of Customer Experience Transformation, Motorway

With AI on the minds of the C-Suite in most organisations right now, it has become a non-negotiable to begin leveraging the technology and reap the rewards it can offer.  

 

Whilst many organisations are still playing catch-up with making their processes as efficient as possible before turning their attention to the novel uses of Generative AI and modern CX tools, Georgia and her team have pressed “go” at a time when risk-averse leaders might not. In this session, learn about the core challenges Georgia faced revamping her CX department to be digitally equipped in a short space of time and more importantly, the results realised.

In this session, discover how Zurich elevated their customer service function across all markets, now paying out on 98% of claims in as little as 13 minutes through multiple channels, including WhatsApp. As well as this, hear an honest recount of “what went wrong” within their project to avoid making similar errors during large transformations.

12:05 pm - 12:25 pm SUCCESS STORY: YOUR WRITING IS YOUR CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
Harry Ashbridge - Head of Writing & Customer Experience, Monzo

Words are almost certainly the main output your company produces: emails, ads, web pages, product descriptions, app content, help articles, T’s & C’s, customer service scripts, complaints responses, and so on. They're probably the main way your customers (current and prospective) experience your communication. But the power they have to shape people's experience is often wildly underappreciated – companies will spend a lot of time and money on some words and give very little attention to others, without realising the damage that does to trust, loyalty and ultimately the bottom line.  

 

We'll take a whistlestop tour through the theory and science behind why language is much more important than most companies realise, and why most business writing just isn't effective. We'll look at how Monzo Bank has used this secret power to rocket to 9 million customers in just 9 years and consistently get industry-leading customer satisfaction scores.
