NOW PUBLISHED!
We are proud to announce that the book ‘Handbook of Service Experience’ has now been published!
Summary
This prescient Handbook adopts an overarching perspective on service experiences in business contexts. Incorporating up-to-date research and empirical case studies, chapters focus on customer experience design, innovation and management in the digital era.
The Handbook of Service Experience sheds new light on the field, presenting novel theoretical and managerial insights to enhance our understanding of this complex area. Global experts from academia and practice contribute by addressing key themes, including theoretically conceptualising the service experience and exploring how to leverage digital technologies to better design, innovate and manage customer experience, whilst also acknowledging sustainability considerations, risks and ethical implications. They present different perspectives across various public and private sectors, such as healthcare and the fast-food industry, as well as B2B services, to improve understanding of what a service experience is, how it can be facilitated, when it occurs, and why it is important.
Comprehensive in scope, this unique Handbook is an invaluable resource for students and academics in business administration, digital marketing and service design, and organisational, social and occupational psychology. Its detailed practical applications and examinations of service experience will also be highly beneficial to professionals and entrepreneurs alike.
