A dynamic and comprehensive approach to creating and managing enterprise processes that deliver sustained high performance, encompassing the full range of management systems and practices. Content based on the experiences of hundreds of companies and the BP Group (www.bpgroup.org) networks ongoing research.

ACX and CPP Masters later than 2016.

Customer experience (CX) transformations are huge, complex, and expensive. To deliver robust and sustainable success requires a methodical approach that ensures thousands of people can work together to consistently produce the optimum processes and experiences across the complete employee/customer lifecycle, including partners, employees and digitization. However, most organizations manage CX, at best shambolic — which dooms their CX operational and strategic transformations.

That's why, as a CPP/ACX transformation leader, you need to craft a plan detailing why, how and what to transform in your company alongside with when the transformation will start showing results. The ACX and CPP Champions™ program guides you through the challenges and steps that will help you chart this successful course to transformation.

1. Changing Minds
People say mindset is everything; but in many cases, it’s not enough. When it comes to freeing yourself from the hustle and overwhelm of the customer and organisational demands, you need a tried, tested and proven approach...

Objective:
Make sure your company and everyone representing you understands and can articulate the why, what and how of transforming to a customer-centric company.

What we will cover…

• Developing a laser-like focus on CX and process alignment
• Introducing the six CX competencies
• Creating a CX/Process Ecosystem

“A CX Ecosystem…is the articulation of the distinctive value, experiences and expectations your organisation provides to a chosen set of customers. It is both strategic and operational and defines and aligns to Successful Customer Outcomes, along with the offerings, channels, operating model and capabilities you will need.”

2. Organizing for Success

“We trained hard—but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we were reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing, and what a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while actually producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.” Petronius, AD43

Objective: Breakthrough the idea that simply moving people around and changing job titles will deliver improved processes and CX, especially since the reverse is often true. Organising for Success requires recalibrating rewards structures and measurement systems to ensure they are ‘Outside-In’.

What we will cover…

• Evaluating existing metrics and reward systems to assess their suitability for CX
• How to Establish the appropriate ‘means to the CX end’ to migrate the old style to customer-centric disciplines
• Implementing either (a) bottom-up, or (b) top-down structures that reinforce the delivery of Successful Customer Outcomes.
  
  

3. Execution in an ever-changing world What do your customers need? Whether you are B2C or B2B simply identifying what customers say they want is no longer enough. Building and delivering a well-designed product for those consumers also isn’t a guarantee of success anymore. Customers today have high expectations, low tolerance, volatile natures and want more than a product; they desire and need unique experiences. To do this, organisations must have the means to execute and grow their CX delivery in a rapidly changing world. Objective:
To create reliably good CX by maturing CX and process management across the enterprise

What we will cover…

• Organisation Readiness for CX and process success
  This session guides you through the BPG CX management assessment so you can gauge how well your organization performs the essential activities of CX management, discover which ones you need to strengthen and learn how to do so.

Conclusion

The competent ACX/CPP Champion will be able to:

Make sure your company and everyone representing you understands and can articulate the CX approach.

• Identify the specific customer categories and align your services and products to delivering, without exception, Successful Customer Outcomes.
• Offload customers who may not share your values as a priority if they cannot be migrated to your services and products.
• Structure the organisation to facilitate the experience you wish to offer your customers.
• Repurpose the corporate culture to deliver customer success, both immediately and in the longer term by proactively calibrating and managing changing customer expectations.
• Build the organisation capabilities and competencies that deliver Successful Customer Outcomes (rather than functional traits that clash with customer wins).

TESTIMONIALS

I originally attended the CPP Masters and it was a turning point for me in terms of managing and designing customer experience. The methodology is pragmatic and one that can really make a difference for the customer while increasing revenue, service and reducing costs. This year I have completed the CPP Champion level – it again exceeded my expectations and I have gained so much.
I would recommend this programme to all organizations’ that are pursuing customer-centricity.
Kirsty Dare, Head Service, Retail Distribution CPP Champion® ABSA, South Africa

I'm writing to endorse Steve Towers' Certified Process Professional Masters program. It completely changed the way I think about a process. Steve taught us amazing secret techniques of process improvement.
The program provided me with the ability to apply all the learnings immediately after the training.He's a very effective trainer with a wealth of knowledge to share. This is a must training for everyone who's interested in making a process better!

The workshop is highly recommended for anyone who wishes to simplify and expedite processes thereby enhancing customer satisfaction. The speaker is immensely knowledgeable and demonstrates vast experience in the subject.
David Mulovhedzi, DPSA (South Africa)

I did the Masters 2 weeks ago and it completely changed my world. Since then things are going really fast within our organisation. The rest of the guys in our executive team are completely sold on the concept.
I am now taking the rest of the staff through some sessions. We plan to work on and optimise 6-10 key processes in the near future.
We are also:
• Revamping our organisation structure to go to the "customer inclusive" model.
• We are going away this weekend to re-think our business plan (which was based on old thinking)
• We are actively considering getting rid of all our titles and silos in the organisation and only having "the business we really are in" on the business cards.
• We are completely changing the KPI model to only focus only on and rewarding for increase in revenue, cost savings, good service and most of all successful customer outcomes.
• We have appointed a staff member to begin talking to clients and to start understanding and managing their expectations.

To be honest I did not think it would happen that quick.
Nachiket Gole, Chief Information Officer - PowerNET Computer Consultants

...you've fundamentally changed the way I think about every process.
And inspired me to try Outside-In (OI) in all walks of life.
The first two levels should be included in educational curriculums (yes, even at the junior levels).
If everyone started applying OI, the world would be... where it should be.
Mahesh Mirchandani, CEO at BhumiTech

If you are looking to improve your own professional skills in business process management and
business process improvement, then I would recommend the Advanced Business Process Methods and
Techniques of the Business Process Professional programme by BP Group.
