Customer journey mapping is key to understanding the experience of your customers, buyers, or users with your company, service, or brand and the ways to improve it. We created the Different Faces of Journey Mappers series to give you a chance to hear (and see) what journey mappers from all over the world have to share from their personal experience.

Join our event to learn, ask, network, and find inspiration for your own CX/UX project.

👥 Who is it for?

The event will be interesting for product leaders, researchers, UX/UI designers, marketers, CX leaders, and everyone interested in building human-centric products and companies.

2) Designing customer journeys in fintech with empathy

Lara Chikhani, Senior Lead UX/UI designer @ Oliver Wyman

COVID-19 compelled companies to deeply dive into their digital transformation, making quick necessary adjustments in order to survive and meet the changing behaviors of their customers who were swayed into the digital world.

Companies should swiftly improve and revolutionize their existing customer journeys and services to retain customers, build needed trust, and meet their changing needs while reaching their business’s financial objectives.

This talk focuses on fintech products where we will discuss tips and tricks on how to design more human-centric customer journeys and how to turn them into joyful experiences, rather than just a tool that they must use.
