Forrester's Indicators of Effective Customer-Centric Culture

Add bookmark

A customer-centric culture is a system of shared values and behaviours that focus employees’ activity on improving the customer experience in order to win, serve, and retain customers.

Everyone knows that embedding customer obsession into an organisation’s culture matters. Ninety-seven percent of respondents to a Forrester survey said that their company talks about the importance of customer experience to employees and other stakeholders at least some of the time.
