Day One

3:10 PM KEYNOTE CASE STUDY - The Power of Human by Design to Deliver Empathy, Build Trust & Gain Consumer Confidence

With consumer preference for digital self-service, the real differentiator for brand perception emerges in moments of crisis and complexity - when customers need human connection most. Yet simply hiring & building in human-touchpoints across customer journeys doesn’t guarantee empathy - it requires deliberate training, design and investment to create confidence and value for both customer and business. Leeds Building Society will share their thoughtful approach to address:


  • How to embed empathy into hiring, training, and career development strategies so colleagues are equipped to resonate with customers (even without lived experience)
  • How to address internal objections by showing that empathy-led service reduces cost-to-serve and builds customer lifetime value
  • Better identifying which services most require empathy and control and how to design training pilots that dial up the human advantage where it matters most
