Boston, MA (Aug. 4, 2020) – Facing the transformational challenge to develop an “outside-in” perspective of the customer experience, insurers are looking at journey mapping to understand the sentiments, challenges, and frustrations of their customers. In a new executive brief, Customer Journey Mapping: Key Issues and Best Practices, research and advisory firm Novarica examines the reasons for journey mapping, the challenges to achieving success, and leading practices to developing journey maps. The brief also provides a breakdown of the common components of an effective journey map.
“Journey maps are often one of the first steps that insurers will take to rally stakeholders around the customer experience,” said Paul Legutko, Vice President at Novarica and co-author of Novarica’s new report. “They can have a very long shelf-life as a result, with organizations revisiting and redeploying them in conjunction with other CX-related initiatives and capabilities.”
