For most companies, the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a global reset of customer experience (CX) objectives in order to address the changing demands of their customers. The need to accelerate digital transformation continues to grow as customer expectations evolve. According to Statista, the most important objective of any digital business strategy is to create better customer experiences—in a 2020 global CIO survey, it was stated that “69% of respondents cited improving CX as a very important factor in driving digital transformation efforts.”


Today’s new normal is fueled by digital-led experiences that allow companies to keep up with changing customer expectations. Customers want to connect with brands easily and in real-time, triggering the need for companies to deploy digital channels that expedite resolution and increase convenience for their customers. Digital channel usage continues to rise: the Teleperformance Customer Experience Lab had seen channel growth in instant messaging, social media, and apps in 2020, with instant messaging becoming the single fastest-growing channel. Moreover, robotic process automation (RPA), bots, and AI have all contributed to an improved customer experience, resulting in personalization, accuracy, speed, and better quality interactions. From an employee’s point of view, being assisted by technology can result in a happier and a highly motivated work perspective, as robotics and digital technologies help automate simple queries and eliminate repetitive tasks for a customer success expert.


As more and more organizations continue to dive headfirst into the undertow of digitalization, a question emerges: How can companies accomplish digital transformation that will drive long-term business value and help gain a competitive advantage?
