Business Transformation Pitch with The CX Goalkeeper – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode, we deep dive into what digital transformation truly means. Roy emphasizes that it’s not just about technology; it’s about reimagining both the work and the ways of working to produce a customer-centric business transformation. He shares compelling examples from contact centers and airlines to illustrate how digital tools can be enablers rather than solutions looking for problems.

But it’s not just about the ‘what’ and the ‘how’; it’s also about the ‘who.’ Roy talks about the role of culture in a company’s digital transformation journey and how it can make or break the strategy. He also discusses the importance of customer involvement, stating that customers are often the ones leading digital transformation.
