It Takes A Village: Oracle Expands CX Partner Ecosystem

These days everyone is trying really hard to deliver amazing customer experiences. However, there’s a truth that is difficult to reconcile: Expectations will continue to shift faster than most organizations are able to evolve or adapt. That sets up the very real potential for falling farther and farther behind.

Now for one more truth: Consumers are in the driver’s seat. They are the true innovators. They will dictate what they want, when they want it, and how they want it, and will not interact with you based on any kind of formulaic customer journey. And they increasingly see experiences as just as important, if not more important, as the actual product or service you deliver.

This is the reality we all work with each day. This is what it means to live in the Experience Economy, and however tempting it might be, the question is not if you’re meeting the expectations of your customers. The question is, what kinds of expectations are you setting for yourselves internally? Are you taking advantage of the latest innovation cycles, or are you sprinting to catch up with them and taking your eye off your core marketing, sales, and service functions in the process? Are you enhancing and augmenting the creativity and ingenuity of your people with technology, or are you saddling them with technology changes that put new limitations on them?
