CLIENT CENTRICITY

 

Client centricity is essential in the modern economy and companies will find themselves out-competed by rivals who put the clients needs at the centre of everything they do. Placing clients at the centre of planning, decision making and delivery, provides a company with a competitive advantage.

 

What does a client-centric organization look like? Retention is the greatest recruitment strategy. Understanding clients means understanding their journey. Client experiences occur not at a single moment but at multiple interactions over time. It is much cheaper to retain a client through developing powerful relationships, than recruit a new one. Being client centric means knowing the client lifetime value and segmenting them into groups where you focus your attention on clients with high value. Co-creating your products, services and solutions, with your high value clients, enables you to streamline processes and systems that make it easier to serve their needs and expectations.

 

Client trust and loyalty occurs as a result of knowing what levers and drivers are required to develop long-term value. It requires aligning people and culture who put the clients needs first.

MULTI-DAY PROGRAMS

 

 

Our multi-day programs are designed to deliver impactful development training that builds on skills over multiple days. Over the program days participants are exposed to new content and have multiple opportunities to practice these skills with world-class coaching and feedback available to them immediately. Multi-day programs are available from 2 days through to year long programs.

Clients are hard to find. Do you know how long your clients or prospects’ lifetime value is? Who are the loyal clients who will stay with you indefinitely, unless you give them a powerful reason to leave? Being able to identify, focus on and retain high value clients is at the heart of client centricity. Focus on the right clients and understanding them inside and out, provides a strategic advantage leading to reduced expenses and greater profit long-term. Understand your clients. Truly understanding what the client wants, needs and expects rather than what we think they want or feel is an amazing product or solution, is crucial. Being in a position where your competition will be unable to match the unique human experience you offer your clients, is the key to keeping your clients.

 

Key Outcomes:

 

  • Learn how to shift from being client focused to client centric by truly getting to know your clients.

Conflict occurs on a daily basis as people have different thoughts, perspectives and backgrounds when there are teams, contracts, partnerships and relationships involved. We have all been in situations where we have got the timing right or wrong when it comes to confronting conflict.
