The use of Internet and other online tools have turned consumers to be more empowered and are now shopping differently. Customers are becoming more demanding and accustomed to getting what they want. With greater access to reviews and online rating, customers are better equipped to switch to new products and services. Consumers now want to buy products and services when, where, and however they like. They expect companies to interact with them seamlessly, in an easy, integrated fashion with very little friction across channels.
As customer expectation continue to evolve – accelerated by the amplifying forces of interconnectivity and technology – markets are becoming increasingly fragmented with demand for greater product variety, more price points, and numerous purchasing and distribution channels.
Companies should be able to adapt to these increasingly disparate demands quickly and at scale. Staying close to the customer experience across an increasingly diverse customer base changing over time is no longer a matter of choice. It is a business imperative and a matter of corporate survival.
The Age of the Customer now calls for companies to be a customer-centric company. Successful ones have discovered that building a customer-centric company depends, first and foremost, on building a Customer-centric Culture.
This framework focuses on the building a Customer-centric Culture utilizing the Corporate Culture Framework. The Corporate Culture Framework is anchored on 4 Primary Cultural Attributes and 4 Secondary Cultural Attributes.
The 4 primary Cultural Attributes are critical in building a Customer-centric Culture.
1. Collective Focus
2. External Orientation
3. Change and Innovation

1. Risk and Governance
2. Courage

This PPT slide presents an overview of the Corporate Culture Framework, a diagnostic tool designed for leaders aiming to assess and enhance their organization's culture in alignment with business strategy. It outlines several key functions of the framework. First, it evaluates the existing culture and its alignment with the company's stated business strategy, which is crucial for understanding any misalignments that may hinder strategic execution.
The framework also identifies culture-strategy misalignments, enabling leaders to pinpoint specific areas needing attention. By evaluating potential impacts of gaps in strategy execution, it provides a comprehensive view of how cultural elements can affect overall performance. Additionally, the framework offers guidance on actions that can accelerate culture-strategy alignment, making it a practical tool for leaders looking to implement change.
The slide details the framework's structure, which is balanced by 4 core indices and 4 differentiating indices. The core indices represent the strategic and operational choices a company makes, reflecting how these choices influence the execution of its strategy. Each core index is described as a spectrum, analogous to personality traits, which are expressed through organizational policies and practices that guide decision-making.
On the other hand, the differentiating indices focus on measuring emotional connectedness between the organization and its employees. These traits are essential for fostering collaboration and ensuring a consistently positive customer experience. This dual approach allows organizations to not only assess their current cultural state, but also to understand the emotional dynamics at play, which can significantly impact overall effectiveness and customer satisfaction.
