What to expect?
​
Customer Experience is only one part of service design. How do we transform business processes effectively by focussing on the employee?
​
Effective digital products are designed as services with customers’ experiences and needs at the heart. This means that we tend to focus on the impact they make from the perspective of external users. But in doing this, we have lost sight of two critical elements – “backstage” and “behind the scenes”. Service design gives the opportunity to make an impact in all three places. That’s why it’s helpful to think of staff delivering services as customers of your organisation and services too.
​
Course learning objectives:
​
You will learn from the SDA consultants design experiences and industry stories:
-
How service design makes impact not only with customer experience, or with frontline staff but backstage and behind the scenes
-
When designing services why you should think about the people and the processes that support the frontline
-
What are the things that the organisation must do to make both the front and backstage possible. These include culture, employee engagement, policies, budgets
-
Why we need to think about the right conditions, the processes and structures in in the organisation to make effective transformation
-
What Service Design can do to support creating the right conditions
