The concept of Value Exchange is key to understanding the choices customers make in accessing your organisation’s service and product offerings.
When organisations do the Value Exchange Activity and define what Value customers seek to receive and want to contribute – there are moments of clarity and opportunity. With this potent knowledge, they use their design power to develop better offerings, they reset their expectations, ignorance is reduced, and creativity is released.
Read more about the concept in this article: Exploring Customer perspectives of Value Exchange.
The Customer Value Perspective is part of a multiple perspective view of value in your enterprise. Consider also Business Owner/Organisational Leader; and Employee perspectives.
