Welcome to Empathyce Customer Experience consultancy

Led by recognised CX practitioner Jerry Angrave CCXP (pictured here), we help listen to what customers, employees and the data are saying. We help understand what is important and then guide your approach to building a Customer Experience programme that has momentum, strategic alignment and real, positive impact.

We work with airlines and airports, SaaS companies, professional services and other B2B organisations around the world. We would love to understand your work, your challenges and how you want things to be different. Here are some of the ways we help:

Customer Experience Programme Management

CX maturity assessments to find the starting point and understand the real culture

Set the CX strategy with a clear aim that everyone can get behind

Listen to understand what customers and colleagues really think

Have the data to measure what is most important to them and you

Build a CX roadmap of improvement actions and strategic considerations to sit alongside your existing programmes

Get everyone engaged, excited and involved in improving and innovating

Leadership support, cross-functional governance, organisational design and employee engagement

Customer Journey Mapping

Step back, understand the customers’ – and employees’ – perspectives and uncover the evidence for a need to change

Spend time being a customer – digital user experience and physical walk-throughs

Include service recovery options at times of disruption, delays, refunds and complaints

Appreciate what customers are doing and why, what they are thinking and how they feel

Find the issues, data and gaps in each step of the customer’s journey

Help colleagues learn more about their business and their role in the customer’s journey

Customer Experience speaking and event moderating

Sharing what Customer Experience is, how it works and why it’s important: education, engage and give confidence

Showing colleagues how they can contribute and take on a more customer-centric mindset

You choose – 15 minutes at your team meeting, a two-hour focused session at your annual event or a three-day immersion boot-camp

I regularly chair the Customer Experience sessions, moderate panels and present at global events such as the World Aviation Festival, Passenger Terminal World, the Dubai Airshow and customer events.

Accessible Customer Experiences

Engage with, and share perspectives of, people with physical, non-apparent and neuro-divergent conditions

Accessibility audits and assessments of built environments and digital estates

Empathy training for front-line teams

Map their journeys; how they cope, their needs, worries, hopes and expectations

(I have a son with a severe learning disability. I also chair the Accessibility Board at Virgin Atlantic and am a member of the accessibility advisory groups for London Heathrow and Bristol airports in the UK).

Customer Experience Professional Development

Coaching and mentoring for those leading and supporting the CX activity

Group workshops or one-to-one sessions

The reality of a CX professional’s role; what is not in the job description

How to… map customer journeys, write a CX strategy, engage stakeholders and prioritise actions along with other core competencies needed to drive a CX programme

Preparation for the CCXP assessment and exam

Customer & Passenger Experience

I share the passion for how a focus on Customer Experience leads to better outcomes – commercially, strategically and for employees as well as customers. If I can help, I’d love to learn how you want things to be different and why.

We know customers’ needs, fears, expectations and hopes are changing all the time. So too, perhaps, your business model, leadership team and strategic priorities. If you just need a sounding board or a more structured form of support to move your CX activity onwards and upwards please get in touch.

Better experiences, better business.

Here are a few of the brands I’ve had the pleasure to work with in support of their Customer Experience ambitions

Thanks Jerry! It was great to have you and all your expertise with us – you’re awesome

Gemma Maidlow, Head of Product Solutions, 15below (airline communications)

Thank you Jerry, it was a great couple of days, lots of engagement, enthusiasm and fantastic ideas

Lisa Olsen, Commercial Director, Liverpool John Lennon Airport, UK

Jerry, when you tell it like it is you’re a less sweary version of Gordon Ramsay!

Debriefing an airport team on the reality of their Passenger Experience

Our experience of working with you couldn’t be any better. We really do appreciate all the work and effort you put into making the session as fun, informative and valuable as possible.

Rachel Besant, 15below (airline passenger communications)

l learnt a lot from Jerry, not just his expertise on customer experience but also how he makes the whole journey you have with him insightful and full of advice. I am grateful to him, one of the most empathetic persons I ever worked with.

Case study and research:

Airline and Airport Disruption Management

Case study: A 3-day workshop with Hawaiian Airlines and global communication specialists 15below sought to understand their guests’ perspective and listen to what colleagues had to say. We mapped the customer journeys and then created a set of prioritised actions from the operational and process-driven, to the strategic and cultural.

Research: a study carried out to understand what passengers expect, fear, need and hope for at times of disruption. What would it take to have advocacy and satisfaction levels above those of a flight that left and arrived on time?

Contact Jerry if you would like the research or case study.

Case study feature:

Airport Passenger Experience

A combination of customer journey mapping and terminal walk-throughs has helped airports prioritise what they should do next. And, it’s helped teams from all parts of the airport eco-systems understand more about what they do.

“How to” – Customer Journey Mapping

Based on nearly 20 years of mapping customer journeys I’m excited to share what I’ve learned, what caught me out and what works. For anyone running their first journey mapping workshop the book has tools, tips and templates on preparing, facilitating and – crucially – how to get value from it afterwards.
