Customer expectations continue to rise, and organisations are under pressure to respond faster, smarter, and with greater confidence. This CONNECT event focuses on turning data and insight into action and helping teams move from analysis to impact in minutes, not weeks. 

This is about going beyond dashboards and reports to make insights usable and valuable across the customer journey. 

Here’s what to expect at this in-person CONNECT event: 

  • Our keynote speaker will share how investing in people and experience drives healthier, long-term growth. 
  • Hear how TUI transformed weeks of analysis into minutes, cutting payment contacts by 40%, uncovering hidden issues, and saving over 100,000 agent hours annually. 
  • Hear from our panel of senior leaders on what it really takes to turn insight into action, breaking down silos, accelerating decision-making, and making insight stick across the organisation. 
  • Explore how faster, more connected insight can help teams prioritise the right problems, respond with confidence, and deliver measurable business outcomes. 

Connect with peers, share practical perspectives, and leave with ideas you can take back and apply immediately.

10:15 – Open Mic: How are you using data and insights to drive your CX strategy

Great CX doesn’t happen by accident. In this session our Director of Services, Kate, will be asking you the questions and exploring how actionable data and real customer insights are helping contact centres design better experiences. She’ll uncover who is using those insights to make fundamental business change for the benefit of customers.

  • Kate Knowles, Director of Services, CCMA
11:00 – Keynote: The Secret to Healthy Growth

During economic pressure, organisations often streamline operations or adjust prices to steady performance, with customer impact emerging more gradually. Because customers don’t react immediately, these tactics can appear effective in the short term. Yet as satisfaction declines, loyalty and retention naturally weaken. You can counteract this impact. Reinvesting in people, service quality and experience increases costs first, but boosts CSAT early and strengthens long‑term, sustainable profitability. When businesses align both timelines, they build resilience, trust and healthier growth.
