Course Focus:

Every hospitality firm’s ability to win in the marketplace depends on the quality of its customers’ experiences. Experiences are the basis for customers’ perceptions about the value a firm and its competitors offer, their purchase intentions and what they tell others. Thus the ability to consistently produce outstanding customer experiences is critical to financial performance.

In response to the growing recognition of customer experiences’ importance, companies increasingly are focusing on Customer Experience Management (CEM), an emerging discipline that focuses on understanding and managing every aspect of customer experiences. Since the customer experience involves every function in an organization, CEM, which has its roots in marketing, is multidisciplinary, drawing on marketing, operations, human resources and IT.

In this course, participants will learn customer experience management concepts and tools by applying them to the hospitality industry. The course will be taught through lectures, case studies and exercises that will engage participants through stimulating discussions and action learning.
