How to take your customer experience and engagement to the next level?

With the toughening geopolitical and economic climate, elevating customer engagement has become critical to differentiation, maintained market share and customers loyalty, even in the very high-end segment where complacency could be your worst enemy.

Despite progress made in recent years, many challenges remain in shifting for watchmakers from product to customer centricity.

In this interactive masterclass, we will reflect on how you can solve ongoing issues and prepare for the next trends in customer engagement. You will learn from your industry peers, the latest academic research from IMD and from leading executives in this particular field, all to help decide the best course of action for your brand.
