Abstract

Current research and practice have increasingly sought to focus on approaches to facilitate innovation due to its expanding growth of the experience economy over the past decade. Normally, customer experience design aims to maximize the effectiveness of positive experience with a brand or company's touchpoints when customers make a purchase as well as use a certain product or service. In order to design a product or service that can provide varying levels of experiences, there needs more beneficial design process strategies to help resolve the changing nature of customer experience. Design process is one such approach that provides designers as well as researchers across various academic disciplines as an integral source of creativity, driving innovation and growth. In this regard, this study aims to look specifically at the nature of customer experience and attempts to understand what extent that design process in both practice and theoretical perspective can assist in customer experience improvement. As a further consequence, this study will focus on implementing the idea of circular design into the customer experience process, namely the Circular CX Design Process-which is expected to increase effectiveness and efficiency in addressing customer needs and demands as well as delivering positive experiences at various touchpoints along the customer journey.

고객 경험 디자인은 고객이 제품 또는 서비스를 구매하고 사용할 때 브랜드나 기업의 터치포인트에서 긍정적인 경험을 최대화하는 것을 목표로 한다. 긍정적인 경험을 전달할 수 있는 제품이나 서비스를 디자인하기 위해서는 고객의 니즈와 고객 경험의 변화하는 특성을 해결하는 데 도움이 될 수 있는 다른 관점과 접근 방법이 필요하다. 디자인 프로세스는 다양한 학문 분야에 걸쳐 혁신을 주도하고 브랜드나 기업의 지속적인 성장에 필수적인 접근 방법 중 하나이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 고객과의 상호 작용과 고객 경험을 개선하는 것을 목표로 하는 서큘러 고객 경험 디자인 프로세스(The Circular CX Design Process)를 제안한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 프레임워크는 고객 여정을 중심으로 다양한 터치포인트를 분석하고 개선함으로써 지속적으로 고객에게 긍정적인 경험을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.
