Renowned architect, systems theorist, author, designer, inventor and futurist Buckminster Fuller said, “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” So what happens to a business or brand that can’t react to a changing model or environment?

Brands used to look for a vendor who could do everything. Over time, one vendor was no longer enough to meet a brand’s needs, and they added, added and added. Now they need all their vendors to work well together. That’s composable, and only some will make the cut. As customers — and your board — expect you to be in new channels and to rapidly adapt to shifts in the market, the need for true composability is more crucial than ever before.

Muji (Japan) You probably haven’t heard of Muji yet, a retail company which sells household and consumer goods, but it is incredibly successful in Japan and operates no less than 700 stores around the world. Just to compare, even if that does not sound like a big deal: IKEA has about 460 stores in total. Launched in 1980, in a Japan that was overly brand obsessed, it profiled itself as the antithesis of consumerism: by offering generic, brand-less and anonymous products as a statement against ex

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
