It’s the 10th anniversary of BT’s global research on customer attitudes around the world. The 2020 edition shows how channel preferences are shifting, what customers are looking for in customer experiences, and whether they think technologies like AI might help, or hinder. On this webinar Dr. Nicola Millard Principal Innovation Partner with BT will discuss the autonomous customer, key takeaways will include:

  • Insight on customer expectations of digital customer experiences and the contact centre.
  • A reality check on the channel mix and technologies that customers are looking for.
  • Examples of the impact that COVID 19 is having on these trends.

About the speaker - Once described as “human caffeine” on Twitter, Dr Nicola Millard injects a positive, people-centred expresso shot to innovation and future strategy. Half social scientist, half technologist, all academic, she uses techniques from disciplines such as design thinking, psychology, anthropology, computing, and business consulting to generate data, provocations and stories which can engage and create conversations from the board room, to the front line. No frothy coffee; just solid research.

In her long and varied career at BT – mostly based at Adastral Park in Ipswich, Suffolk – Nicola has done a number of jobs, including futurology, research, usability, customer service, marketing, and business consulting. She was involved with a number of BT firsts, including the first application of artificial intelligence into BT's call centres, BT's initial experiments with home working, and helping to develop BT’s “net easy” score, a new way of measuring customer experience. Her most recent areas of specialism are customer experience, and the future of work.

Nicola is an award winning presenter, with 2 TED talks and hundreds of conference panel, chair and keynote sessions under her belt. She occasionally pops up on radio and TV around the world, including appearances on 'Woman's Hour', 'Tech Tent', ‘The Genius of Invention and Back in Time for the Weekend' for the BBC.
