The CX Symposium
The art of CX is a rapidly evolving discipline. As an industry, we’re used to change as we transform our businesses to meet the needs of the modern customer. But change has never been more pertinent than in the last 12 months; everything has shifted, from the way we operate and function as a business, to the way that we connect with our customers. It’s our job as CX leaders to continue to evolve in line with that shift, ensuring the customer is front and centre.
In a year of radical change, there is no better time to come together as an industry to learn from the shared experiences and challenges of fellow CX leaders. Through a series of virtual international keynotes and inspiring local case studies, this year’s event will explore what customer-centricity looks like is this post-Covid world.
The programme will explore critical themes and challenges, such as:
– In an increasingly digital world, how can we better use technology to deliver exceptional experiences?
– With the way we work changing overnight in 2021, how can we continue to engage employees and prioritise the employee experience in our quest for customer-centricity?
– What do our customers truly want from us our customer-centric businesses?
– The human element of CX – what role do trust, purpose and empathy play?

Hon. Victor Dominello MP
Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government
NSW Government
Victor Dominello is a senior Minister in the New South Wales Government and has held various portfolios over the last decade including Aboriginal Affairs, Innovation and Finance.
In 2019 he was appointed the inaugural Minister for Customer Service and in 2021 was also appointed the inaugural Minister for Digital Government.
Victor firmly believes the use of real-time data and technology are the most powerful ways to improve quality of life and reduce suffering.
Victor was a member of the original Crisis Cabinet which led the NSW response to Covid-19 and now sits on the Covid-19 and Economic Recovery Committee.
His particular focus has been on delivering digital solutions such as the Service NSW QR code check-in feature and the real-time data analysis which has informed the state’s decision making.
Victor has been the driving force behind the roll out of the Digital Driver Licence, the establishment of the $2.1b Digital Restart Fund and the rapid expansion of the Service NSW app to include QR code check-ins, the voucher programs, such as Dine and Discover, Covid-19 test alert notifications and the registration of positive rapid antigen tests.
Keynote:
Peter Cross
Former CX Director
John Lewis (UK)
Eight years in charge of the customer experience at John Lewis and Waitrose and ten more as Mary Portas’ business partner, mean there are few who can match Peter’s unique blend of consulting and practical experience and step so confidently into the future of shopping, helping brands and organisations remain irresistible to their target consumers.
Known for his charismatic, inspiring and straight talking style, Peter draws on his experience with some of the world’s most iconic brands and shares trusted techniques of deepening relationships with both consumers and employees through brand purpose and authentic human connection.
Peppering his presentations with tangible examples from across the commercial and third sectors, Peter isn’t afraid to challenge current thinking, offering new perspectives around disruptive innovation, internal culture and remaining what Peter calls sticky.
In his time at John Lewis customers slept in shops, staff were sent to theatre school, the organisation’s customer service agenda, values and purpose were reset, a Christmas ad campaign became the global benchmark and Waitrose played a front line role in feeding the nation. During his time as a Consultant, charity shops were reinvented, a professional cosmetic line opened Institutes in multiple territories, a report for the Government predicted the future of the high street, one of the world’s biggest shopping malls opened during a global recession and some of the greatest luxury brands redefined the meaning of physical retail.
Peter ensures his audiences leave with a clear sense of what the future of commerce might have in store, actionable insights and a passion and determination to stand out and play their part.
