This made it difficult for the shared services team to realize benefits from consolidating resources like greater economies of scale and less duplication of effort. When we did our initial assessment, we found a few root causes of the struggle \u2013 the organizational structure was complex, processes were undefined and unmeasured and there were communication gaps. Because expectations were not consistently met, the shared services team did not have a good working relationship with clients, and the team was viewed as not having a thorough enough understanding of the business to offer meaningful solutions. So even when projects were completed on time and on budget \u2013 client satisfaction remained low.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h4 class=\"kt-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_faf6ed-f7\">Solutions &amp; Approach<\/h4>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_99560f-3f\">We approached our assessment knowing we were working with smart, capable people who wanted to be successful serving their internal clients. Our main objective was to help our client prioritize initiatives that would shape their shared services team into a customer-centric organization. We started by asking the shared services team\u2019s internal clients about their expectations and experience working with the team. We met one-on-one with 22 employees from both lines of business \u2013 ranging from those at the executive level down to individual contributors. We created an interview guide and user survey to help the team measure customer experience and surveyed 45 additional clients directly to get their feedback. From here, we used the Forrester\u00ae model of customer experience to identify areas for improvement and created a list of recommendations based on insights from the assessment. We translated these recommendations into campaigns with action items and placed them on a roadmap for streamlined execution. Some recommendations, like a communications campaign, would work to benefit all customer experience relationships; while others, like project templates, were focused on improving the experience with large projects or ongoing support.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h4 class=\"kt-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_b1a74e-4b\">Results &amp; Lessons Learned<\/h4>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_fc0052-b6\">First and foremost \u2013 our client wanted a real assessment \u2013 not just a description of how we could help or areas where they could improve with no follow through. With so many different competing interests across different business lines, we knew it was essential to build solutions that worked across the enterprise and drove alignment. So we built recommendations that not only addressed improvements in the shared services team\u2019s process, but also supported change management initiatives. The end result was so effective that similar assessments are being replicated in different groups within the organization. Serving your client well \u2013 whether an internal or external client \u2013 takes hard work, understanding and continuous improvement. Asking for feedback can be hard, but it is key to everyone\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading2494_1c0c26-c7\">When one complex enterprise organization came to us to improve the customer experience for the internal business partners of a shared services team, we knew the pressure they faced and that they had to increase customer satisfaction.
