CAREER DEV | 120 VC Stop Trying to Improve Customer Perception

Technical = Ways of Working

As much as IT project leaders hustle to manage customer perception, most stakeholders don't understand or care to understand the complicated processes of technology-led initiatives. Until things break, they don't really care what teams do.  All that really matters to stakeholders is that their problems are solved. 

Instead of a constant focus on customer service and perception, there's a better way. 

In this #GSD talk, we dive into finding the driving purpose of an initiative, the real-real problems that it seeks to solve, and framing a promised future stated that creates FOMO. Practical brand-building methods applied to projects to make them matter.  Get the project funded, stakeholder buy-in, and participation with a clear pathway to that delivers the necessary and expected outcomes. 

Learning Outcomes & Objectives

  • Learn why IT Departments should stop trying to improve their customer's perceptions.
  • Why it's more important to figure out your team's role in Improving Customer Satisfaction, Employee Satisfaction, and Profitability
  • Develop a "Team Brand" that MATTERS to your people and your customers and drives the behavior you need, to achieve the necessary and expected outcomes.
