In this week's episode of CX Leadership Talks, host Nienke Bloem dives into a critical challenge for CX leaders: how to create a true sense of urgency around customer experience (CX). Without urgency, even the best CX strategies can stall. Through her journey with KPN and her work with clients, Nienke shares how organizations - commercial or governmental - can prioritize CX more effectively. She introduces the "CX Time Trap", explaining why CX is often seen as important but not urgent, and provides a mini-formula to help leaders break through this perception. By aligning data with emotion and business goals, CX professionals can drive real action. But how do you master this skill? Join Nienke’s exclusive webinars on March 25th and 26th! In these live sessions, she will guide you in crafting compelling CX stories that inspire action and align with business priorities.
