NICE METHODOLOGY EXPLAINED

NICE is a People and Organizational Development Program that enables the Transformation of Process/Operations driven companies into Customer Centric Organizations.
The objective of NICE is to help Leaders to revolutionize the way their companies deliver Great Customer Experiences.
The secret of success in the current Experience Economy is being NICE. To be NICE it is important to understand 6 fundamental principles:
1.
The Employee Experience comes first, because people have a hard time delivering a happiness they don’t have.
2.
There is no higher purpose than Service to others
3.
Processes must be Reviewed, Tools must be Updated, People must be Developed and the Culture must be Changed to allow a Transformation of the entire organization towards Great Customer Experiences
4.
As the Customers are constantly evolving, Innovation is fundamental to create differentiation through CX.
5.
Technology must be embraced, but CX requires a humanistic way of using it.
6.
The Customer must be in the Center of everything your company does.






The NICE Program is a companywide initiative that tries to address all the aspects related to the impact that a company causes on its Customers’ Experiences.
The entire Customer Journey must be considered, from the Expectations created by the company’s brand to the disposal of the product being purchased. In between the 2 extremes, the Expectations created by the marketing and social media must be considered, as well as the sales, contracting, delivery, aftermarket, performance, user interface, customer services and many other aspects that affect the Customer perception of a company’s commitment to the Customers, as a consequence, defines how likely this Customer will continue doing business with this company and how this Customer will recommend this company’s products and/or services.
As it is impossible to be perfect in every aspect, the NICE Program helps to identify the majority and most relevant aspects affecting the Customer Experience and creates a hierarchy of priorities based on their impact and associated costs to allow the company to make the least investment with the highest return in the Customer Experience.
The concepts of the NICE Program can be delivered in many different ways, to individuals or companies, on a self guided or a consultant guided manner. Click the “Learn More” button on this page to learn how this methodology can be better delivered to you or your company.
