Opening Keynote: Keys to Standing Out and Building Loyalty: Elevate the employee experience to enrich the customer experience
6:00pm – 6:45pm
Overview:
The customer experience starts with the employee experience, it’s an inside out effort. Most businesses struggle with differentiation and they are in search of ways to stand out in a sea of sameness. As cool and fun as technology is, PEOPLE make or break every business. So leaders, supervisors, managers must create an extraordinary employee experience FIRST to empower and engage people to elevate the customer experience… not because they have to… because they want to.
