Overview
Government agencies are increasingly investing in modernisation initiatives and transformation, highlighting the importance of understanding users and customer centricity. Surveys show that 81% of citizens expect their requests to be resolved in a single interaction, while over 85% value speed, simplicity, convenience, and transparency in government services. Designing services that fit people’s lives and skill levels will increase engagement, build trust, and forge lasting connections.
This online course aims to provide public servants with the opportunity to step into their customers’ shoes, allowing them to reflect on their needs, motivations, expectations, and pain points. The workshop-style session provides tools, frameworks, and insights to understand diverse customers and adopt a customer-centric lens, delivering seamless interactions.
