Customer Journey maps v. Process modeling

As good as journey maps can be?

We all need a better picture, one that represents both the outside and the in. A representation that brings a clear view of the customer, their interactions and the resulting internal dialogue across people, systems, process and rules. That is what we have here. Something new. Something shiny. And…. something proven.

In theory, theory is great but in practice theory doesn’t work – Is NPS dead?

Has Net Promoter Score gone passed its shelf life?
On a scale of 1-10 what would you respond?
And would you kindly refer me to a friend?

Seriously though the popular NPS (well with certain executive teams) seems to have run its course.
This last year has seen a clutch of leading companies coming to the same conclusion, simply put we have to get more scientific about the Customer Experience.
Share and review the latest observations:

Say what you do, do what you say

Managing customer expectations and creating the experience to deliver it makes good sense. 


Why is it then almost an after-thought for most large corporates? At best it seems happen chance. 

The way to success is to put the effort into creating successful customer outcomes (SCO) and then managing customers expectations to them.

Craft the associated experience and ensure all the interactions (external and internal) contribute to this SCO.

Another perspective? See http://www.successfulcustomeroutcomes.net/2014/11/customer-experience-management-truth.html

Understanding Customer Needs

You have to understand the Customer Need and work backwards into the organisation to ensure everything you do aligns to that need.

And that is not about asking customers what they want – you have to understand the need even when the customer doesn’t know it themselves. Until Apple invented the iPhone 3 none of us knew we needed it.


We call this thinking and the resulting actions Outside-In.

You cannot manage the future by micro managing the past

How much do you need to know to know you know you know enough?
There is an industry out there which encourages detailed analysis of the past to understand the future. It didn’t work then, it doesn’t work now. 

Stories of generals fighting the last war are legion. So don’t become a victim of Analysis Paralysis.
