    Designing a Customer-Obsessed Business

    2020-01-22T12:43:00Z Provided by

    The imperative to be customer-obsessed has clearly resonated with companies, but actually redesigning the business with an eye to customer experience goals remains problematic for most. Though many agree with the need to be customer-centric, they are still hindered by misaligned priorities and organizational silos, a lack of shared data and advanced tools, and the absence of clear leadership for the initiatives. If companies hope to succeed in the age of the customer, then they must begin to close these gaps in communication, organization, and leadership in order to prioritize creating a more satisfied customer.

    By using blockchain within a B2B network, events representing the exchange of documents could be recorded on a shared ledger – along with new kinds of supplemental events, including those produced by third-party IoT and smart devices. This can and likely will be accomplished by building upon, rather than replacing, technologies and systems that are used today. We envision blockchain, that is, providing a shared visibility overlay.

    Every industry, including the industry of government, is facing digital disruption.
