Tech Priorities 2021 (2): Creating a brilliant experience for customers’ ever changing needs

Consumer behaviour is changing rapidly. Thanks to technology people are more empowered, connected and better informed than ever before. Today customers expect an unprecedented level of service and convenience. Contact centers play an increasingly important role in this. Automation, artificial intelligence, smart use of data and other features are at the heart.

In the new Leading Lights Boardroom season, the focus is strongly on IT priorities for 2021: the things that CIOs and IT decision makers really need to tackle in order to create business value. In each session we will show real-life IT projects that create value in the long term – through optimization of resources, competencies and technology.

In the second session it’s all about addressing changing customer behaviour. This virtual meeting will be introduced by Pramod Madala, Global Head of Enterprise Technology at Diebold Nixdorf, based on the East Coast of the United States. Our host is Joris van Oers, MD Resources, Logistics and Manufacturing & Europe at BT’s Global unit.
