Tech CEOs: Build a Customer-Centric Culture for Success EDT: 11:00 a.m. | BST: 16:00
Gartner predicts that in a postpandemic world, companies that demonstrate and know how to apply empathetic, as opposed to sympathetic, measures will prove more successful overtime. Tech CEOs should use this as an opportunity to reenergize employees around a companywide, customer-centric culture that inextricably links the employee and customer experiences. The Gartner 2020 Technology Buying Behavior Survey found that 65% of respondents were “more likely to expand or maintain a relationship with a vendor when we’ve developed a bond with them.” This complimentary webinar looks at why most companies struggle to use the science of empathy in their go-to-market efforts, and how your company can change that.
