Webinar overview:

Firms are facing into the next paradigm shift for customer engagement. This is being driven by a shift from compliance to customer outcomes, ongoing digitisation, a responsibility to meet the needs of vulnerable customers – and above all a focus on customer experience across all aspects of the business. 

On the back of Consumer Duty, this topic could not be timelier, as the industry’s leading firms are all building core capability for managing communications that meet customer needs. 

Together with our expert panel, Barney Hosey, Signal CEO, Mike Ellicock, CEO of Plain Numbers, Simon Farrar, Customer Comms Enterprise Lead at Nationwide and John Marr, UK Finance, we take a deep-dive into the practical business transformation required to lead the way and deliver brilliant customer communications.
