Reinventing with purpose: The power of reimagining customer experiences at Best Buy
In our latest HX Superheroes episode, we had the pleasure of hosting Jaclyn von Oven, Director of Customer Experience at Best Buy. She’s a proud Midwesterner, hockey mom, and a wannabe FBI agent.
Discover how a natural disaster kickstarted an electronic retail revolution and how Best Buy (originally Sound of Music) rose to the top after changing its name and business tune.
Forsta’s CEO Kyle Ferguson and Jaclyn von Oven delve into the impact pandemic had on Best Buy’s business, the innovations required to thrive amid unprecedented disruption and a whole lot about data democratization.
From frontline workers to corporate officers, von Oven shares the two customer-led questions everyone at Best Buy asks themselves. And let’s us in on a secret of what’s in Best Buy’s CX toolbox.
Plus, you can hear what inclusive leadership looks like at Best Buy today – Forbes’ #15 top female-friendly place to work.
