Sessions:

Moving Needles: Operationalizing Customer Experience (CX) in Government
Now, more than ever, government agencies must get customer experience—service delivery to the public and within their agency—right. Some agencies do this better than others. Some excel at it. Why has CX become so important and where is it going?
  • Tom Guarini, AVP, Delphix (opening remarks)
  • Barbara Morton, Deputy Chief Veterans Experience Officer, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

Personalization in Government: Build Trust with Omni-Channel Experiences
The right information, the right service, the right time. Omni-channel experiences use modern technology to create simple, seamless, secure, and scalable experiences that connect citizens with what they’re looking for when they need it most. Personalization in government leverages data and insights, dynamic content across web, mobile, and apps, intelligent forms, and personalized and automated communication to build trust in government service delivery and strengthen and empower the workforce.
  • Nancy McNee Newell, Head of Marketing Experiences, Adobe 

How CX Executive Order Changes Things
Last December, the White House put a priority on CX as part of the federal management agenda, elevating sustained, cross-government service delivery processes. The objective has broad aims, from improving customer-facing services, to modernizing and improving systems and reducing administrative burdens.

CX Cultural Literacy
How can federal agencies set the tone not only to implement technologies that improve CX, but also foster a workforce culture that can leverage it best? In other words, how are agencies training and implementing workforce to deliver effective CX across multiple networks, capabilities, and operations serving internal and external customers?

GOV Experience Beyond the Survey
Government has realized the need for superior customer experience as a core strategy in fulfilling its collective missions. The importance of experience has been underscored by recent Executive Orders, and is a common theme in the recent Biden Admin’s PMA. The “What” and "Where" to focus on to improve that experience is clearly defined. However, the mechanics of “How” we improve Experience at scale comes with massive disruption across the entire Govt ecosystem and community. How can we achieve innovation and transformation through an Experience-Centric lens without significant disruption?
  • Billy Biggs, VP - Public Sector, Walkme, Inc

Data is Fundamental
Data is the lifeblood of CX goals, including tapping diversity, inclusion, accessibility, for customers, as well as setting a path for the organization. Managing data from customer interactions can improve future performance and set a more effective course for services.

Delight and Amaze Government Customers with Document Generation and Contract Management
Whether you have hundreds, thousands, or millions of constituents to serve, you also have a staff that’s only a fraction of that number, meaning increased efficiency can be a difference-maker. Two areas that are ripe for improvement in many government agencies and departments are documents generation and contract management. And when those areas are augmented with automation, the results are improved citizen, customer, and vendor satisfaction. This session explores how to get started today with document generation and contract management.
  • Cesar del Aguila, Public Sector Director, Conga
