"I'm proud of our class of 2015 winners. For the first time, our winners have outlined clear-cut goals, the ability to achieve enterprise wide buy-in and commitment, cross-departmental process changes, and tangible results. Most importantly, they've elevated their customer experience to meet consumer expectations," said Mila D'Antonio, editor-in-chief of 1to1 Media. "My hope is that organizations across all industries will take away at least one element from these winning initiatives to implement within their companies."
Penny Gillespie, research director of digital commerce at Gartner added: "These winners demonstrate the power of being customer centric organizations. While customers are the lifeblood of any organization, it has not always been intuitive to focus so heavily on them because the results were not always so obvious," she said. "These winners have changed that. Not only is focusing on the customer the right thing to do, it also enhances a company's financial performance."
The winners will be recognized during at the Gartner Customer 360 Summit in San Diego, CA. All of the winners are featured on http://www.1to1media.com/cxexcellence/ and on the Gartner Customer 360 Summit website.
