Masterclasses & Mentoring

Masterclasses800x300

The learning environment of a masterclass allows you to turn off your busy multi-tasking mindset and focus your creative brain on the future. Brainfood masterclasses are high octane input for designing new target operating models.

Delegates find them engaging and fun. They inspire a stream of new insights. They are also highly productive. Everyone leaves with the outline of a new strategy and roadmap. Uniquely the masterclass slides are also provided to help you retell the stories of the day as part of consensus building with colleagues as your first task after the masterclass.

Your Choice

Masterclasses are available as open courses or delivered in-house just for your team. Both have advantages. We can advise on what’s best for you.

For instance different masterclasses can be combined into customised workshop agendas to suit specific needs. Here are some previous examples:

  • Educating business heads in the ‘art of the possible’ for their next generation service infrastructure
  • Orientating a management team on digital customer behaviours 
  • Consulting and training a regional hub on their social engagement strategy
  • Providing in house courses on omni-channel service design for a consultancy practice

You can find future dates and request relevant agendas on each individual masterclass page.

Individual Masterclasses

Accelerating Your Digital Customer Service Strategy

Customer Service is being disrupted. Customers have adopted digital lifestyles and passed on those expectations to brands.

“Very interesting day discussing CEX with @martinhw yesterday. Martin has unlimited knowledge and I can’t wait to explore some ideas with him to take our customer experience to the next level in 2020″

Dale Wordley, Head of Customer Experience & Insight at Flagship Group

“HI Martin! Thank you so much for coming and enlighting us a bit more in the topic of omnichannel support! We are still digesting several areas, and will likely contact you again for some trend-clarifications. Overall I sense people are very satisfied, so thanks!”

Sara Fortea, Service Design at HP Spain

“Martin was kind enough to give me 4 hours of his time to help pull together the strings of a digitally led CX strategy into a coherent and deliverable plan. Through his deep knowledge of the subject and questioning, probing and challenging thought processes in a supportive way, Martin was instrumental in helping me building the storyboard that underpins the proposal. That coupled with Martin’s generosity in connecting with other thought leaders in the digital CX universe is something for which I am massively grateful. A genius in the digital CX space and a true subject matter expert and thought leader.”

Jon Bowen, Customer Director at Paymentshield

“I engaged Martin to work with our organisation on developing a common vision for next generation customer services, and his impact was outstanding. It is rare to meet someone with Martin’s breadth of expertise coupled with deeply intelligent insights and a wealth of connections to the real world ‘as it happens’. He understands exactly the strategic role that technology has to play in this field and positions this compellingly with technologists and senior business people alike. I do not hesitate to recommend Martin’s work.”

Joanna Goodrick, Head of Business Architecture and Strategic Alignment at Cambridge Assessment

“Always great workshops with Martin. Thought provoking theory that actually translates to practical models for improvement.”

Leon Shouksmith, Marketing Account Manager at GM Financial

“I recently had the great fortune to attend a series of 3 Master Classes arranged by Capita and expertly led by Martin. The topics were all linked and provided an amazing opportunity to consider ideas on how to successfully communicate with customers in the digital age. Each session contained clear, concise content with tons of relevant and sometimes topical examples (good, bad and indifferent). The Master Classes also provided ample opportunity to consider how to apply the methods and models in my own organisation and the ‘class work’ was supported by well constructed take-away material to fully complete when back in the workplace. For me, this was one of the most useful elements of each class – having the chance to take on board best practice concepts and work them through in a real-life business situation, taking guidance from a renowned expert. Priceless! Martin’s infinite and authoritative knowledge of the subject coupled with his boundless enthusiasm ensured that participants left each of the sessions wanting more. I would wholeheartedly recommend any of Martin’s future sessions to colleagues looking to shape their plans for omni-channel operating.”

Lynn Dickinson, Head of Multi Channel at British Gas

“Martin worked with my team to develop a 3 year strategic plan for our service centre. The aim was to take it from a cost centre problem child to something that could add real value to the business in terms of delivering real and useful customer insight. The final goal being to be a real multi-channel operation with European capability. The plan has been accepted by the board and is progressing well despite the very difficult economic climate. This would not have been possible without Martins expertise and ability to link concepts to real measurable business benefits”

Lee Robinson, Customer Service Director at Baxi Group

“I engaged Martin to deliver a series of workshops and coaching to accelerate thinking around Social Customer Service and Social Business within my team. I set him some eye-watering goals, which he delivered to an impeccable standard. He also cared about what he was achieving and ended up going above and beyond his brief – a rare thing in a consultant. I would recommend Martin as one of the most clever, creative, fast-paced consultants on the circuit and it would be a pleasure to work with him again.”

Maria McCann, Global VP / Director of Customer Experience & Service at Spotify
