What is the Enterprise-Class Customer-Centric Operating course about?
When organizations grow through acquisition, customer experience frequently becomes inconsistent. Siloed operations, divergent service models, and competing priorities slow integration and weaken customer trust. Without a unified, customer-centric operating model, even successful mergers underperform on retention, satisfaction, and cross-sell potential.
