Library CEM
Customized Program for Modern Libraries
Modern Libraries are going through a revolutionary change and the demands on Library leaders to create a customer-centric experience are greater than ever before. This customized two-part program provides tangible paths to innovation that will generate the customer advocacy required for libraries to thrive well into the future.
DAY 1: CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MODEL FOR LIBRARY STAFF
This workshop for front line staff focuses on two key elements– Training & Engagement. In the morning we roll out the Customer Experience Management (CEM) model. This ensures alignment among the staff members and introduces the guiding principles of CEM and how they are demonstrated in the library business. In the afternoon we honour the front line experience by conducting a Customer Experience continuous improvement session where we ask the team to brainstorm on ways of improving the organization’s Customer Experience.
- our experience, we have always found that the front line staff, who work intimately in the organization’s customer experience system, have great ideas on how to improve it. We can then sift and refine these concepts using our proven CEM Workshop Debrief Process. Many of their ideas emerge as key Customer Experience Improvements that leadership can be built into the organization’s strategic plan going forward.
