2013 Customer Experience Predictions

Over the past two years, consumer technology adoption and market forces have catapulted the field of customer experience to strategic stature. In 2012, this shift manifested itself privately through sweeping organizational changes at companies in nearly every industry — and shined publicly through an increase in mainstream media mentions, a proliferation of customer experience conferences, and a burgeoning community of practitioners.

In 2013, leaders who gathered momentum over the past few years will look to reinvigorate their efforts and avoid stalling out. These companies — and those that seek to follow their lead — will turn a close eye to their internal operations and renew their focus on customer insights. Meanwhile, laggards will take shortcuts to catch the customer experience train — and will crash and burn as a result of their own short-sightedness.

In this webinar, analysts Kerry Bodine and Ron Rogowski share Forrester's predictions for what Customer Experience Professionals should expect in the year ahead.
