Steven became known for his first book “The Conversation Manager” which won an innovative marketing award in 2010. He is also a partner in consultancy firm Nexxworks, co-founder of Zembro and the co-founder of Snackbytes.
Steven is a thought leader on the transformation of customer relationships and the future of marketing. He is an expert in inspiring companies to become true customer-centric organizations in this high speed digital world.
Steven recently wrote a book ‘When Digital becomes HUMAN’ and he can bring us the topic on how our business/ industry will evolve in the future, the ‘Client relationship of the future’ – ‘The Human Touch – How people love people and not algorithms’. This actually means that companies who know how to make a difference with a more ‘human touch’, will gain the hearts of their clients.
Digital transformation alone is not enough, organisations need to be looking at human transformation as they develop their customer and employee engagement strategy.
In a world of self-service, customer automation and the integration of online and offline customer service, ensuring that you get the balance right in your digital and a human customer service is the key to survival.

- 74% don’t like dealing with a company that doesn’t have a phone number on its website
