Branding and Customer Experience (Coursera)

Offered by IE Business School,
Branding and Customer Experience (Coursera)

Whether students come from a Branding or a Customer Experience background or perspective, this course will explore the synergies between and the intersection of the two sets of activities. While there are different approaches to defining a branding strategy, a branding project’s implementation impacts many departments and their customer-facing activities. In this sense, it’s essential to understand branding efforts in the context of Customer Experience. In this course, we will use a framework - adapted from Customer Journey Mapping - for focusing and organizing students' thinking about the operational implications of their branding projects.

Diversité et inclusion sur le lieu de travail (Coursera)

La diversité est une réalité indéniable dans le monde d'aujourd'hui.

Les questions de diversité occupent systématiquement les deux faces d'une même pièce. D'une part, les mouvements sociaux ont historiquement mis en lumière les inégalités subies par les femmes et les groupes minoritaires. D'autre part, la diversité apporte des perspectives différentes et potentiellement nouvelles, qui peuvent être source d'innovation et de changement.
