Apr 2017 - Present
Unlimited Experiences SA is the country's first 100% black women owned CX management consultancy, we work with organisations to define, design and reconcile their CX strategy with other parts of the organisation in order to contribute towards the overall corporate strategy. We believe it is important to understand the organisational priorities and we have found over the years that most organisational goals and objectives sound simple yet there are in the heads of the C-Suite, not clearly articulated. The key success factor of our work is in how well we understand the business strategy of our client, this allows us to help each organisation in terms of understanding how they execute better in the marketplace and how to create better employee experience and customer experience.
