Meet Richard Owen
President and Chief Executive Officer, NICE Satmetrix


Insights from Our Interview with NICE Satmetrix CEO Richard Owen
The State of Customer Experience
Why do some companies lead while others lag? Promoters and their positive word of mouth provide one answer, according to Net Promoter methodology, but there’s more to it than that. During 10 years of successful deployments, we at NICE Satmetrix have learned a lot about how NPS measures customer engagement and impacts marketing acquisition, development, and retention. Today’s NPS leaders integrate measurement, customer centric processes and smart marketing into a holistic approach that connects the entire customer journey – from acquisition to lifetime value, and back again – to drive continued growth. Learn what it takes to marry theory and practice to execute success.
