4. “What was offered in the past and what is offered
today were designed for different times,

User Experience
Customer Experience
The experience that users should have before, during and
after engagement with the platform? How does this fit into
my lifestyle? Where does this add value? What value does
it add? What do I feel? What do I tell people?
The individual + the sum of all interactions in each moment
of truth. How does CX bring to life the confluence of the
brand promise and the brand experience?
The design of a person's entire experience with a products
and services. Customers expect frictionless movement
across channels, devices and physical touchpoints.
BRAND
Brand
The brand is the culmination of the experience people have
in each moment as defined by BX and delivered through
moments of CX, SX, UX. BX reflects evolving customer
preferences, expectations, values and behaviors. It’s more
than creative, design and pillars, it’s emotional, personal.

Service Experience
The design, staging and delivery of experiential services
through orchestrated roles, props and processes. How do
we enliven experiences through operations and services?
23. What is the experience
people should feel?
And how is the experience

24. MINDSET IS
EVERYTHING
Innovation is all the work
you do to conform to
expectations and
aspirations of people as
they evolve instead of
making them conform to
your legacy perspectives,
assumptions, processes
and metrics of success.

outdated mindset. Modern
customers are connected
and empowered. They
want things NOW and
PERSONALIZED in the
moments that matter how
they communicate,
discover & connect.

33. The line between reality
and virtual reality is
blurring. Customers
want to feel like physical
spaces are designed for
their digital lifestyle.
36. Once you’ve felt a truly
personalized experience, it
becomes the new standard for
engagement. You, and
other customers like you, don’t
go back. Every business now
needs to recognize the Ubers
of the world as disruptive
competitors in
experience design

The Relevance Gap: Ask Different Questions
Does it fulfill their needs?
Does it complete their lives?
Will it brighten their days?
Does it arouse their curiosity?
Will it simplify their lives?
Will it help them finish their tasks better/faster?
Does it give them new hope?
Does it bring them closer
to their goals
Does it resonate with them?
Does is solve their problems?
Does it offer new possibilities and outcomes?
Does it give them something
to share or talk about? Does it make them want
to help others?
59. CX should be designed like a Disney or Pixar movie,
complete with character and story development,
storyboarding, woven into a thoughtful and
methodical universe where the experience is linked,
immersive and enchanting in every moment of
truth." @briansolis

storyboarding process to learn how
to re-imagine the Airbnb brand and
the experience for guests and
hosts. This lead to a cohesive
vision and a guide to help hosts
deliver and guests receive a
desired brand experience.
65. Invest in cross-functional innovation
pilots…prioritize innovations that
target the connected consumer.
cross-functionally to unite the
customer’s experience.
Test. Learn. Share. Together!
66. It isn’t just disruption you should
worry about, it’s mediocrity that
will drive your customers away.
All aspects of the end-user's interaction with the company, its services, and its products.
