What is the CX dilemma? All companies want to build a stronger, faster and more cost

achieved or should you just pick two, because you can’t get all three at the same time?
Our panel will delve into the investment decisions which are challenging many companies
and will debate the possibility of whether you can deliver on all three counts. Discussion
will be based on own experiences and beset practice solutions to discover if customer
focus initiatives are a bottomless pit or the way forward for growth and increased profits.

After many false dawns, multichannel is
really with us. The rise in web-initiated
interactions with contact centre agents –
through email, web chat and social media
– has become the new gold standard. The
general move to the website has meant
that increasing numbers of customers are
choosing to stay with that channel if they
need help, rather than use a phone.
