What is the Scalable Customer-Centric Operating Models course about?
Leaders and practitioners are expected to deliver seamless customer experiences while managing teams across time zones, cultures, and tools. Traditional models rely on co-location and rigid hierarchies, creating friction, delays, and misalignment. The gap between strategy and execution widens when customer signals get diluted across siloed functions.
