..we need to design a complete journey NOT touchpoints
Build an understanding of
what is working and what is
not.
Step back and identify the
nature of the journeys
customers take—from the
customer’s point of view.
Understand how customers
navigate across the
touchpoints as they move
through the journey.
Anticipate the customer’s
needs, expectations, and
desires during each part
of the journey.
Set priorities for the
most important gaps
and opportunities to
improve the journey.

Come to grips with fixing root-cause issues
and redesigning the journeys for a better
