- Course Outcomes and Topics Covered:
- 1. Customer Success Lifecycle Value Fundamentals: Understanding the pivotal role of customer success in value creation is essential. This encompasses grasping the customer value lifecycle and effectively measuring customer outcomes throughout the solutions' value lifecycle. Impacting customer success through the strategic creation of business value with technology solutions is paramount.
- 2. Upselling Opportunities with Value Management: Managing the overall health of customer accounts requires a proactive approach to identifying upselling or cross-selling opportunities.

Learning effective StrategyOps methods and tactics for understanding ongoing customer needs, identifying upselling opportunities, and driving customer satisfaction further enhances this process.
