TCE Program
TCE (Total Customer Experience) Program
Introduction
Establishing a successful Total Customer Experience (TCE) Program is an important decision for every organization. It is a statement that customers are in the focus and at the top priority. As it creates a set of expectations, TCE Program is also a commitment to listen, learn and improve. This commitment is dual: to the customers and to the organization’s employees.
A successful TCE Program paves the way for creating a real change or for leveraging existing company-wide initiatives. The TCE Program is backed-up by the most authentic evidence for driving these initiatives – the voice of the customer.
Therefore, we view the TCE Program as a holistic, extensive and continuous companywide process and not as a one-time effort, made to ‘feel the pulse’ and continue ‘as usual’. A successful TCE Program can be a great organizational asset of methodology, tools, processes and even culture, embraced by all the company’s employees and customers.
