| Course content and structure |
|
This fourth quarter course (and aims at wrapping all 8
first-year courses into a deeper understanding of SEM) – with a
clear link to the second quarter course on organisation, structure,
and process management – follows the customer’s journey before,
during and after the service delivery – as the organisation can
excel or fail in all stages. Process design is thus a crucial
component to great service – and to consistent service delivery.
Touchpoint types, design and management of them provides a
structured approach to value creation and living the brand. Emotion
design (based on the emotion print of the customer journey) is a
key to understanding how customers react – and what can be done to
accommodate for it. Key objectives are:
-
The customer journey
-
Touchpoint management
-
Emotion print – and trust & control
-
Service recovery as marketing
-
Innovating the service(s)
-
The services marketing plan
-
Living the brand
-
The value of loyal customers - in monetary terms and a ownership
quotient perspective
-
When looking at sharing economy business models, who is then the
customer?
-
The 7 P marketing mix
|
| Teaching methods |
