Jim Kalbach og James Kalbach Mapping Experiences

It's not the map. It's the mapping. Organizations struggle to improve customer experiences when they focus on internal processes over people's needs. Visualizing experiences helps teams gain an outside-in view of the business, but maps alone don't provide magic answers. The real value is in mapping as a process: the conversations, analysis, and activation that turn insights into action. This practical guide teaches teams to use alignment diagrams to drive organizational change. Customer experience, UX, product, brand, marketing, and business leaders all shape what customers encounter. Mapping aligns business goals with customer needs across functions to deliver value. It's not just about surface-level optimization-it's about understanding people and building the capability to act on that insight. This updated third edition shows how experience mapping evolved from a niche design practice to a core capability. Plus, it adds guidance for using mapping at scale to drive transformation across organizations.
