Whether you are seeking an engaging speaker who can energize your team about customer experience or you are organizing a strategic leadership event, Julia can help you spark change

Customer Experience is more than a buzz word these days. Organizations the world over have realized that putting the customer at the center of their business is a winning strategy. Most businesses face the challenge of getting everyone on board with customer-centric thinking, even when there is buy-in from some members of the leadership team.

It is often at this crucial juncture, when I get the call or email asking about my availability to assist as a customer experience keynote speaker. Sometimes teams need to get fired up about a new strategic shift towards customer experience. Other times they need that “ah-ha” moment to realize that everyone (and I mean everyone) in their organization contributes to customer experience. Or perhaps a team would benefit from some inspiring CX case studies to help them think about things differently. No matter the task at hand, I’m here to help organizations jump-start or breathe new life into their customer experience efforts.

Julia Ahlfeldt, CCXP is a customer experience keynote speaker

A customer experience keynote speaker with a difference

As a CX practitioner, I leverage 20 years of experience helping organizations realize business value through CX strategy. My experience isn’t hypothetical. It’s real. When I speak with teams, I draw on my breadth of firsthand experience driving customer-centric change, incorporating practical tips and tool, as well examples of CX best practices.

If you’ve heard my podcast, you’ll know that I’m no stranger to the microphone. I also did a bit of theater in my younger years, so the jump to the stage as a customer experience keynote speaker – where I get to share my professional passion of customer experience – was an easy transition.

Leadership workshops

I really enjoy the energy and buzz speaking to large groups at industry conferences and annual corporate events. But I am just as comfortable engaging with smaller groups. Smaller-format sessions can provide a great opportunity for leadership engagement, where I can tap into my extensive experience facilitating executive CX strategy workshops and incorporating design thinking approaches.  

Each one of my keynote addresses or team workshops is unique. I tailor these sessions based on the format, audience, industry and objectives. I am happy to develop customized case studies, audience engagement, interactive group activities, or whatever is required to spark meaningful change.
