Understanding the outcome you want with automation will determine the approach. The context of automation is critical, and to determine the right approach, you need to be clear on the outcome you want to achieve. Anurag Shah, head of products and solutions at Newgen Software, explores approaches to automation and the value of each. The vocabulary around digital transformation continues to evolve with advancements in technology. However, amidst all the cycles and waves of technological disruption, automation continues to dominate the conversations. Only the context of those conversations may differ. The context of automation is critical. An inappropriate application of any automation technology can adversely affect the outcomes. Many enterprises, for instance, have deployed chatbots to automate customer service. The results vary. Similarly, many have applied robotic process automation (RPA) for various use cases, from front-office processes to back-office operations, with mixed outcomes. The same holds for mobility, portal refresh, or artificial intelligence (AI). So, when we say we want automation, we must be clear on the outcome. Chatbots, for instance, typically replace human interfaces to offer control and cost-effectiveness, but human knowledge workers perform relatively better on customer engagement in cases dealing with subjectivity. Adding AI to chatbots […]

getty Relationships are built on trust. Earning and maintaining a customer’s trust, however, is complex and multidimensional. At the service execution level, it requires competency, commitment and consistency. For customer communications, it requires clarity and a deep understanding of the customer’s needs and preferences. Around brand identity and message tone, it requires compassion, humility and a strong sense of morals. In terms of the information a customer is willing to share, it requires systems and processes that ensure maximum security and protection. Hard to build and even harder to regain once lost, trust may just be the most powerful five-letter word in banking today. If we narrow it down, trust falls into two categories: delivering consistently exceptional and personalized customer experiences, and protecting customers and their data from cyberattacks. The Balance Between Digital Transformation And Humanization It makes sense that trust would be so integral to ensuring customer loyalty in banking. After all, we’re putting our money and our livelihoods into banks. If we don’t trust the people and organizations tasked with taking care of our money, what is left in the relationship? A customer recently shared she has been with the same bank since she opened her first […]

The Big Picture Crowdsource Innovation After a turbulent few years, we’re entering an economic downturn with a slowdown in the investment market, as growth for the sake of growth is no longer viable, and profitability returns as a priority. Digital innovation is still necessary, as plenty of untapped opportunities exist to solve actual problems, particularly in sectors like agriculture, education and energy. Using a new approach to innovation called digital acceleration, companies can continuously leverage a little bit of technology to make a huge difference. The tech industry is at a transition point. Investors and market incumbents have been typically attracted to growth, however, the media has been awash with tech business scandals that suggest it will take more than rocket-ship advances, as seen during the big tech boon of earlier years, to launch a viable and sustainable tech outfit. Simultaneously, the ambition to build a new and decentralized internet has seen vast amounts of money go into cryptocurrency and NFT markets, yet sufficient safeguards have not been able to match this wave, making them susceptible to scams. The problems with such a religious commitment to growth as seen previously are not lost on investors and C-suite executives either […]
