Pre-Conference Training

Pre 5: Experience Foundation

Since 2000, our economy has shifted from an economy based on providing and managing services to one that offers experiences that matter to people. A new generation of experience-dominant companies has emerged, like Apple, Tesla, Google, and Facebook, replacing service-dominant companies.

This course is a first step toward building a career in this experience economy. Learn best practices for embracing experience management, articulating the value of an experience-based culture, and building an employee-focused, experience-forward organization. Walk away with a full understanding of the Experience Optimization Framework and the know-how to compose, propose, and scope an experience management project or program. Join us and start your journey toward becoming an ambassador for experience management.
