Download your copy of '5 CX Trends For 2022'. In this e-book, you’ll learn why these trends are happening, why they matter, and what brands can do to prepare.

As a customer you can feel it when a company has gone above and beyond for you, it feels...different.

But if going above and beyond for customers was so easy, every business would do it - but they don’t. Why? Well it’s hard to do! It’s hard to create an amazing experience for all of your customers when you have not made it part of the bones of your company.

But some shining star brands actually do it, and they’ve figured out how to “do it” all the time. What is it they do? They make customers feel GOOD. That is why recent research shows that 89%1 of companies that lead with customer experience perform better financially than their peers.

These companies have a customer focus in everything they do, from how they treat employees to how they innovate and serve their local communities - because you can no longer just operate in a vacuum. Every action you take, every decision, has a butterfly effect, and being customer-centric today also means being self-aware.

Every year, I create a list of the most customer-centric companies to recognize companies that lead with customer experience. The companies I’ve recognized are not just known for great customer experience, they excel at being a great place to work, they have high customer satisfaction, they achieve culture awards, receive innovation recognition. I also see them come up again and again in my own research for my work as a customer experience keynote speaker.?

The last few years have made this list different. These are companies that stepped up during the pandemic. Customers don’t want to go back to the way things were pre-pandemic. They expect companies to continue to personalize customer experiences, and meet customers where they are, whether that is at a digital doorstep2, or in a phygital3 experience.

According to Accenture?, over 50% of customers have reimagined themselves, and are re-evaluating their personal purpose and what matters to them in life. Loyalty died during COVID. Customers didn’t and still don’t have the patience to wait around for a company to get its act together. According to Forrester?, high-growth companies are 2.5x more likely to focus on solving customer problems than their competitors.

Today’s companies are faced with changed customers, new pressures, and a stronger need to make a difference in their communities and the world. This year’s list of top CX companies is based on five categories:

  1. COVID 911. How did companies respond to the pandemic? Did they rise to the occasion for their customers and employees? *This was the most heavily weighted category because COVID impacted customers’ lives more than anything else.?
  2. CX mindset. How do companies treat customers through customer service and other channels? Does the company aim to reduce stress with quality products and services? Are executives involved in customer experience? Is there a culture where employees wake up excited to serve customers?
  3. Community and environmental responsibility. Customers want companies to take a stand on racism and inequality. Do companies take a stand for critical cultural issues like diversity and the environment? Do they prioritize transparency and sustainability??
  4. Employee experience. Are employees empowered to do their jobs well? Do they have the tools, physical space, and culture to feel valued at work and serve customers? Contact centers are notorious for providing staff too little too late. They treat contact center employees like children, making most customer service interactions very frustrating.
  5. Innovation. Has the company found creative ways to solve problems? Are they leading their industry and creating innovative solutions? Innovative companies are always finding new and better ways to serve their customers.

With those criteria in mind, here are the top 100 customer-centric companies in 2022:?

Blake, I appreciate your Top 100 list. And I very much appreciate you. I hope we can have an open conversation. I am curious to find out why Marriott International is superseded by Hilton or the other ranked hospitality companies. Local Marriott properties always support their communities. And JW Sr's leadership legacy to take care of their associates and they will take care of guests has engaged their people for years. I, too, would agree with Doug Rabold, who said on your Linked n post, that notably missing are The Walt Disney Studios and Southwest Airlines.
