Book excerpt: Struggling to ensure that the customer is at the center of all your business does? This book is your guide to putting the "customer" in customer experience. Not sure what that means? Well, for starters, too many executives believe they are delighting their customers. Why wouldn't they think that?! When they focus on growth, those customer acquisition numbers are pretty sweet, but they don't tell the real story. Prioritizing customer retention is critical. But you can't just throw technology at it, give it some lip service, and call it a day. Retention is hard work! You've got to understand who your customers are and what problems they are trying to solve or what jobs they are trying to do. Then you've got to use that understanding to design an experience that helps customers achieve their goals. That's the key to putting the customer in customer experience! Ultimately, you need to bring the customer voice into all meetings, decisions, processes, and designs. The customer must be at the center of all you do. After all, it's all about the customer! In this book, I cover the three approaches to customer understanding: surveys and data, personas, and journey mapping. I could've written the whole book about journey mapping, but there's so much more to building a customer-centric business than journey mapping. The culture must first be deliberately designed to put the customer at the heart of the business. And all foundational elements of a CX transformation must be in place to make that happen. With that knowledge, read this book and: Learn about the three approaches you must use to understand your customers, why you must use them, and how they work together. Create an action plan to ensure insights gleaned from these three approaches are implemented in your organization. Develop and assign personas to your customers in order to better understand their needs, goals, problems to solve, and jobs to be done. Learn the difference between touchpoint maps and journey maps and how touchpoint maps can still be a valuable asset in your customer experience toolbox. Understand why journey mapping is called the backbone of customer experience management - and how to make it so in your organization. Set up and facilitate your own current-state and future-state journey mapping workshops with customers. Set up and facilitate service blueprint workshops with internal stakeholders. Find out how to put the customer at the heart of your business. And more!

Download or read book Inspired written by Matt Richtel and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Remarkable. This profound volume informs and inspires." —PW, STARRED review From the Pulitzer Prize–winning New York Times science reporter acclaimed for “bring[ing] scientific concepts to life” (Bill Gates), a pathbreaking new investigation into the mysteries of human creativity How does creativity work? Where does inspiration come from? What are the secrets of our most revered creators? How can we maximize our creative potential? THIS IS THE STORY OF HOW WE CREATE. Creativity defines the human experience. It sparks achievement and innovation in art, science, technology, business, sports, and virtually every activity. It has fueled human progress on a global level, but it equally is the source of profound personal satisfaction for individual creators. And yet the origins of creative inspiration and the methods by which great creators tap into it have long been a source of mystery, spoken of in esoteric terms, our rational understanding shrouded in complex jargon. Until now. Inspired is a book about the science of creativity, distilling an explosion of exciting new research from across the world. Through narrative storytelling, Richtel marries these findings with timeless insight from some of the world’s great creators as he deconstructs the authentic nature of creativity, its biological and evolutionary origins, its deep connection to religion and spirituality, the way it bubbles in each of us, urgent and essential, waiting to be tapped. Many of the questions Richtel addresses are practical: What are the traits of successful creators? Under which conditions does creativity thrive? How can we move past creative blocks? The ultimate message of Inspired is that creativity is more accessible than many might imagine, as necessary, beautiful, and fulfilling as any essential part of human nature.

Learning to become a designer can be tremendous fun but it can also be frustrating and at times painful.

This book relies upon that knowledge but presents it in a way specifically intended to help the student and perhaps the teacher. Bryan Lawson’s classic book How Designers Think has been in print since 1980 and has gone through four editions to keep it up to date.

Download or read book A Journey Into Being written by Christine Ramos and published by . This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UPDATED AND REVISED SECOND EDITION From the author: When it comes to getting guidance about the arrival of new life the sources are plenty. Healthcare practitioners, books, magazines, websites, and well meaning friends and family members can all offer valuable information. But what about gaining insight about childbearing from a consciousness and spiritual perspective? When I was pregnant with my second child I sought a different type of guidance; one that spoke to the true depth of carrying another life inside me. As a spiritual person and empath I knew enough to understand that nothing is random. I wanted to learn about the soul of my unborn child and why I would be the one honored to be his or her parent. I craved to know the process of spirit uniting with physical body. When does it happen and can the mother sense it? Is it possible to communicate with the consciousness of your baby before birth? Can you be so attuned to your child that you can intuit their inner happenings on a vibrational level? I had nowhere to turn to for the answers to these deeper questions. So I began my quest to put it all together. It meant delving deep to make sound premises backed by available research and reliable observation. The nurse in me demanded empirical evidence, but I also wanted the warmth of personal accounts. A Journey Into Being is cumulation of medical, scientific, spiritual, and Eastern wisdom. It will take you where science meets spirituality on the transformational passage of the soul as it prepares for life, unites with the physical body, and undergoes birth. It will provide guidance on how to know and nurture a child's inner being. Once we view new life through the lens of spirit many questions and mystifying issues surrounding the arrival of new life will become clearer like: How do I nurture my child on a more intuitive level? Why are some babies more sensitive or reactive than others? Why do I feel like I've known my newborn all my life? How can I connect spiritually to my child during pregnancy? Was I chosen to be my child's parent? What is the true meaning of life/reality/consciousness How do we reconcile the idea of a just Higher Being when cruel things can happen to innocent children? A Journey Into Being is not just for those who are parents or wish to become parents. It can help anyone gain greater insight into the eternal nature of consciousness and explore the course of their own journey into physical being or of those they love. This book is my tribute to every precious child as each brings the promise of positive change for a more loving universe.

Download or read book The Journey is Everything written by Katherine Bomer and published by Heinemann Educational Books. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the electric, pulsating world around us, the essay lives a life of abandon, posing questions, speaking truths, fulfilling a need humans have to know what other humans think and wonder so we can feel less alone." -Katherine Bomer Sadly, many students only know "essay" as a 5-paragraph, tightly structured writing assignment that must check all the boxes of a standardized formula. How did essays in school get so far away from essays in the world? Katherine makes a powerful case for teaching the essay as a way to restore writing to think-that it is in fact necessary for students' success in college and career. "Essay helps students write flexibly, fluently, and with emboldened voices," she writes in The Journey Is Everything, "qualities they can translate into any assigned writing task in school or in life." She argues that the close reading of essays fulfills the recommendations of state and national standards, while practice in essay writing leads to better academic and test writing. More importantly, "Essay gives its author the space, time, and freedom to think about and make sense of things, take a journey of discovery, and speak her mind, without boundaries." Don't students deserve the chance to develop their own topics, discover their own writing voices, and learn to structure prose organically, according to the content? Katherine gives you tools, strategies, and activities to bring a unit on more authentic writing into your practice. Rediscover the power of the essay to bring out students' true thinking-their true selves. Because after all, the journey is everything.
